Sustainability/Best Practices

Pete Elmer proposed a workshop in this area to Dan Katz
- Shared challenges
- Spoke with Neil CH (UK), initial discussions, but not much specifically planned
- Didn’t yet find volunteers to help with this
- But we would still like to do it… so if you are interested, please get in touch with Dan
How the software we write continues to be maintained over time, be supported on multiple platforms, and new features get added/removed over time
How can training be sustainable? Not the focus of this workshop, but an interesting question.
