Dear NEST Users & Developers!

I would like to invite you to our next fortnightly Open NEST Developer Video Conference, today

Monday February 27, 11.30-12.30 CET (UTC+1).

* Special topic for the in-depth today will be the introduction to "NEAT" a Neural Analysis Toolkit by @WillemWybo.

* Additionally, @heplesser will shed more light on performance optimizations described in #2617: Integrating "deliver events first".

Feel free to join the meeting also if it's just to bring your own quick questions for direct discussion in the in-depth section.

As usual, in the Project team round, a contact person of each team will give a short statement summarizing ongoing work in the team and cross-cutting points that need discussion among the teams. The remainder of the meeting we would go into a more in-depth discussion of topics that came up on the mailing list or that are suggested by the teams.

Agenda

* Welcome * Review of NEST User Mailing List * Project team round * In-depth discussion

The agenda for this meeting is also available online, see https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/wiki/2023-02-27-Open-NEST-Developer-V...

Looking forward to seeing you!

Cheers, Dennis Terhorst

We use a virtual conference room provided by DFN (Deutsches Forschungsnetz).

You can use the web client to connect. We however encourage everyone to use a headset for better audio quality or even a proper video conferencing system (see below) or software when available.

Web client

* Visit https://conf.dfn.de/webapp/conference/97938800 * Enter your name and allow your browser to use camera and microphone * The conference does not need a PIN to join, just click join and you're in.

In case you see a dfnconf logo and the phrase "Auf den Meetingveranstalter warten", just be patient, the meeting host needs to join first (a voice will tell you).

VC system/software

How to log in with a video conferencing system, depends on you VC system or software.
