Hello folks! Following FOSDEM, today I presented NeuroFedora on eLife Innovation Leaders. The topic for the discussion was "road mapping for an open project", and I presented NeuroFedora the roadmap for our sig as well. The main points to highlight from the discussion was how the sig formed, the real problem that we intend to solve, how would we solve that, and our plans for the future. There were some interesting questions in the discussion as well, but the most interesting was, how do we actually test the tools before packaging them. Apart from the basic unit tests (that upstream provides), do we do any other tests to ensure it's correctness? Since, we have a lack of neuroscientists in the sig, who actually use the packaged tools, I believe that we should test the tools packaged by us, as a QA to actually verify that they work in Fedora. As an example, if we package a DICOM image viewer, then we should make sure that we are able to view images in it, other than the actual math behind it that is verified by the unit tests. This may turn out to be quite difficult for some complicated tools, but it would help us gradually shift from packaging to testing as well. Other than that, below are the notes made by Emmy during the talk for everyone's reference. The slides for the talk are present here [0].
