We would like to invite you to our in-person "HELIPORT 🚁 Workshop 2023" at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR). In addition, we would be very thankful if you could communicate this invitation to interested colleagues.

The workshop will start at June 12, 2023, 1:00 PM and ends at June 14, 2023, 1:00 PM.

In our HELIPORT workshop, we will provide insights into our HMC project and share our results. In addition, we would like to provide a platform for the presentation of similar projects, as well as extensions or integrations from the surrounding research areas. The overall goal of the workshop is bringing together different institutions with similar challenges and establishing a community around our HELIPORT project.

We welcome submissions on related projects, metadata management in our scientific field in general or workflows. We accept contributions in the form of talks or posters. We also welcome first or future HELIPORT use-cases from within our community!

We are excited to announce that the main HELIPORT GitLab repository is now publically available! This means that our project is open to the community, and we welcome contributions from everyone. Whether you are a developer, UI-designer, a potential user or simply interested in our project, there are many ways to contribute. You can suggest enhancements or submit bug reports by opening a new issue or even contribute code by creating a merge request. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Today, we released HELIPORT 0.5.0. 🥳 This new release brings some major restructuring in the HELIPORT codebase and infrastructure. We focussed heavily on automation in CI/CD to bring you more frequent smaller changes and high quality code in the future.

This week, on the 5th and 6th of October, we have the chance to present our HELIPORT 🚁 and HERMES 🛫 posters at the virtual conference of the Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration (HMC) who are kindly funding these projects. We are looking forward to sharing our latest project developments and networking with the other HMC projects!

Our third presentation of the new HELIPORT 🚁 poster takes place in Hamburg at the 8th Annual "Matter and Technologies" Meeting at DESY. Today we have the other HMC project we are involved in next to our poster: Automated FAIR4RS software publication with HERMES 🛫.
