The Eighth ctools coding sprint will take place at IRAP, Toulouse in the week 9-13 October 2017. A detailed schedule will be uploaded in the near future.
Follow us on twitter (hash tag #ctools8).
Everyone is welcome; if you have used ctools for CTA science simulations or IACT data analysis, if you are interested in contributing to the ctools and GammaLib software code development, or if you are already an experienced developer, you can contribute. You will need programming skills in Python or C++, best is of course if you are experienced in both. We will split into groups and work onto a number of issues. Bring your laptop. If possible, install git before coming and git clone ctools and GammaLib. For new folks: you can get a head start also by making an account on Redmine and taking a look at the code documentation (http://cta.irap.omp.eu/ctools/ and http://cta.irap.omp.eu/gammalib/).
If you plan to attend, simply add your name to the list below:
The meeting will take place at IRAP-Roche, information of how to reach the location can be found at http://cta.irap.omp.eu/toulouse2011/practical.html (the bus schedule may be a bit outdated! Take the bus 78 from Faculté de Pharmacie and exit at stop LAAS, then it’s less then 5 min walk to IRAP).
A suggestion of possible hotels is on http://cta.irap.omp.eu/toulouse2011/accomodation.html (also this information dates back to 2011, but I guess most hotels are still there). Note that since recently we have a tramway connection to the airport. You may take the tram to go to the terminus (Palais de Justice) and from there take the metro to Faculté de Pharmacie (direction Ramonville) to go to the lab.
