A collaboration platform for the GSE community

Lero- the Irish Software Engineering Research Centre- is now hosting a collaboration platform meant to bring together researchers and practitioners with an interest in the Global Software Engineering domain.

The ICGSE wiki is meant to serve as a pointer to events, resources, individuals and research groups connected to the Global Software Engineering topic. Please bookmark the page, as it will not be very easy to remember later on.

You are invited to add your own name to the people list, and also add links to webpages of your group, your projects, your papers/presentations/podcasts/videos, or any other resources you will find appropriate.

You can also add events related to the GSE topic.

For those of you who are not very familiar with wikis, please have a look at the MediaWiki User Help page.

We also created a Google Group for the use of the emerging community around the ICGSE conference. You can join the mailing list by visiting this page and using the "Join this group" button on the right.

We believe that both the collaboration platform and the mailing list could be useful tools for preparing the ICGSE'09 in Limerick and for keeping in touch afterwards. So please join in!
