OSR038 Software Carpentry with Greg Wilson [EN]

Software Carpentry is an initiative that has already been mentioned
in various Open Science Radio episodes. From 1998 it has ventured
out in order to teach scientists how to teach other scientists how
to program software that helps them in their daily work with
scientific (data) analysis. The community-driven project is a
unique one and it was about time that we dip into their activities.
Luckily we don't need to do that alone but are honored that Greg
Wilson, the co-founder of Software Carpentry, has freed up some of
his time to give us an introduction and answer some of our
questions. In addition, it is quite convenient that Konrad already
has gained some experience with Software Carpentry himself. We hope
this episode provides a small introduction to this great initiative
and maybe encourages someone of you to participate and support it.
Besides, we strongly recommend that you take some time and have a
look at the material yourself. Enjoy!
