[Chicago] Talk on my reproducible science project?

[Michael Tobis]

Sheila's boss on this project is giving a talk on it at Scientific Software
Days in Austin, TX, where I am a co-organizer. This will be videoed and
I'll let you know when it's up.

People who are interested in software for reproducibility are very welcome
at this meeting. Keep an eye out for it next year.
