Dear workshop participants and others--
Now is the time to start thinking about possible workshop projects, if you haven't done so already. You do NOT have to be a workshop participant to help in the process of developing and discussing ideas.
Please consider adding an idea on the "ideas" page here (you just need to get a TDWG twiki account):
http://wiki.tdwg.org/twiki/bin/view/Phylogenetics/MIAPAWorkshop2011Ideas
The two ideas listed currently are:
* Create benchmark of annotated pubs relating phylogenies and biodiversity * Sharing the tree of life: What can we learn from the re-use (and lack of re-use) of mega-phylogenies?
I have cc'ed this message to the tdwg-phylo list and to some individuals who indicated their intention to participate. However, please address your replies only to the miapa-discuss list. Those who want to join in discussion will need to join the list.
On behalf of the workshop organizers (Jim Leebens-Mack, Hilmar Lapp, Nico Cellinese, Enrico Pontelli),
