Hi all,
It has been a while since most of us met at the ASPECT hackathon or at other meetings. In order to keep us all connected and also to give everyone else the opportunity to join our community we will continue our tradition of a virtual mini workshop in January. This is an informal opportunity to present latest feature additions, discuss interesting science applications, get to know other community members, and join ASPECT discussions (possibly in smaller breakout groups) between all users and developers. All of this will happen virtually organized via Zoom and Google Docs. The program is distributed over two days (Jan 25th/26th), which will only be filled part-day to leave people room to organize their daily routines and to make the schedule work for as many time zones as possible.
What?
ASPECT virtual user meeting, open to everyone interested in ASPECT
When?
Jan 25th/26th, virtually, 8 am - 1:30 pm Pacific time, preliminary schedule: [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LUCpnYTuW7dl5R\_XuP0mGWyH5CJvGGosmJCE3YuHHA0/edit#gid=0](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LUCpnYTuW7dl5R_XuP0mGWyH5CJvGGosmJCE3YuHHA0/edit#gid=0)
How to participate?
Zoom links will be posted on the [CIG events page](https://geodynamics.org/cig/events/calendar/2021-aspect-user-workshop/?eID=1891) before the meeting
How to present?
If you are interested in presenting, please leave a note in the google sheet under “Short presentations”, or send me a message. In case we have too many submission we will have to select, based on balancing topic areas and relevance for the largest number of participants.
I will post more information in this forum thread as it becomes available. Looking forward to meeting with all of you.
Best,
Rene

On each of the two days we have set aside a time block for optional one on one meeting time. This time will not be managed by us, but instead is meant to allow you to schedule meetings with other users or maintainers to ask for help or discuss smaller topics. If you plan to meet with someone during this time please contact the person you would like to talk to beforehand.
