Audrey shared an update about a proposal with Cathy. There is a proposal in development called NCODES (National Center for Open Data supporting Environmental Synthesis) with NSF. They would like software carpentry to be involved if NCODES comes through. They are looking at collaboration in developing curriculum and delivery of workshops.
