Mastering GitHub Pages (Jekyll and GitHub Pages)

Here's another example of a Darwin Core Archive that is "broken" such that GBIF is missing some information. GBIF data set A checklist to the wasps of Peru (Hymenoptera, Aculeata) comes from Pensoft, and corresponds to the paper:As with the previous example GBIF says there are 0 georeferenced records in this dataset. This is odd, because the ZooKeys page for this article lists three supplementary files, including KML files for Google Earth.

We recently setup a departmental GitHub account for Hutton ICS, and one of the things we'll use this for is to showcase projects which ICS staff are contributing to - such as Biopython in my case. To start with we have forked https://github.com/biopython/biopython as https://github.com/huttonics/biopython which we'll use as a read-only mirror - but now we want to keep it up to date with commits pushed to the upstream repository.

Recently, Jean-Claude Bradley discussed improvements to the software his group uses to automate the determination of solubility from NMR spectra. The code, written by Andrew Lang, is available for download from the Open Notebook Science site. Now, there's nothing wrong with sharing source code this way - it's just that there's a much more effective way - with GitHub. I've created a fork of Andrew's NMR analysis code on GitHub.

Following the CDK and JChemPaint Primary, Bioclipe moved to Git just after the 2.0.0 release.
