Scratch/Research Retreat 2015

From WikiDotMako

I'll be buying food for everybody while you're here. The cafeteria won't be open while we are here and there will be eight of us so it's going to involve pretty basic cold breakfasts, materials for basic sandwiches for lunch, and slightly more complicated communally cooked meals in the evening.

Things you should bring:

  • Beer, wine etc - There's obviously no budget for alcohol so bring any booze you want to consume. As in life, one earns many extra points when you're willing to share!
  • Waterproof clothing and shoes. We'll mostly be inside but we'll definitely have an afternoon off to strike out and explore. The trails around here are absolutely beautiful but they are muddy and wet.
  • Your laptop! This is a work retreat, after all.
  • Your Entrust token if you have one) to log into Hyak.
  • Any books you want to read and/or refer to.

Schedule

We'll set the specifics of the schedule during the agenda setting meeting on Friday morning.

I've planned to have Saturday off but if the weather looks like it will be nicer on Sunday or Friday and bad on the other days, we'll switch this around.
