    My updates for BfG:

    -Lots of grad/und students from forms are signing up to enlist on the roster, which is great. Will be porting them to an open google doc soon
    -No projects have been submitted- it is hard for me to figure out where to reach out with projects and how to differ them from Hackseq projects. I am thinking about limiting them to research efforts with formal university affiliations, and it's a little hard to figure out when to tell people to submit their project and how it will differ from a traditional Hackseq Project. Is it worth doing outreach to researchers/university departments for this?

    @emreerhan

    ORCA updates:

    • We're still on to have ORCA May 22 - 24. We may be able to ask to have it for other dates as well. Let me know what you think.
