    Hi Everyone,<br>
    <br>
    What: a webinar - Data quality, usage, and issue tracking using
    GitHub<br>
    Where: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__idigbio.adobeconnect.com_datamgmt&d=AwMCaQ&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=CLFZJ3fvGSmDp7xK1dNZfh6uGV_h-8NVlo3fXNoRNzI&m=_IYc95yEk6tWXhstxQIvMEWzmVkidwmEFNeaalutYzo&s=FBxXolEIgLG0Uvwy8nry8njzh4znwIUpjwAGTI4gfLo&e=">http://idigbio.adobeconnect.com/datamgmt</a><br>
    <br>
    A quick reminder that this webinar is tomorrow,<br>
    When: Thursday 23 April 2015 from 4 to 5 PM EDT<br>
    <br>
    <strong>Abstract:</strong> VertNet mobilizes biodiversity data (not
    just vertebrates) for a broad spectrum of natural history
    collections. Part of VertNet's mission is to help data publishers in
    every way we can. One way to help is to set up, demonstrate, and use<em>
      a common </em><em>centralized reporting mechanism that </em><em>makes
      it easy for data publishers to receive and manage feedback about
      their published data</em>. GitHub provides all of the necessary
    infrastructure to do this for free, including version control for
    files, issue tracking, email integration, and an Application
    Programming Interface (API). <em>We will discuss and demon</em><em>str</em><em>ate
      how VertNet uses each of these aspects of GitHub to capture and
      manage user feedback, usage statistics, and bulk data quality
      reports</em>.<br>
    <br>
    Thanks @VertNetOrg for putting this together.<br>
    <br>
    See you there!<br>
