Hi all,

I hope you've been well recently. Our next BY JHOVE! meeting will be next Tuesday, March 11th at 14.00 CET.

For this session we have created a new Errors and Warnings breakout room, adjacent to the existing rooms (PDF-HUL 45 “Malformed filter”, TIFF-HUL 6 “Count mismatch for tag <tag>; expecting <minCount>, saw <count>”, PDF-HUL 85 “No document catalog dictionary” + PDF-HUL 33 “Improperly nested dictionary delimiters”) we will also have PDF-HUL 66 “Lexical Error”.

Adjacent to the breakout rooms for this session, we will be running a highly-requested GitHub training. This will be perfect for beginners to attend and learn lots of new skills. To best learn from this session, we would like for you to create a GitHub account before the meeting so you can follow along better.

An alternative and ongoing resource to accompany the training: Lotte's Bits and Bots study group is back for a second year, and brings together professionals eager to learn digital skills in a collaborative and supportive environment. Sign up for their kick off sessions and read more about it in their OPF blog. From their study group last year, Lotte has made an extensive guide here with a lot of images to help. This may also help you with the work we do in this group and give you a better grounding in working with GitHub, etc.

Please don't forget to continue updating our ongoing task spreadsheet as it helps guide future sessions. We look forward to meeting with you all next week.

Best regards,
