Last week's EGI Community Forum 2013 in Manchester, UK, was a huge success. Throughout the week, several bloggers posted their thoughts on the event on the GridCast website. See our pick of the highlights below:
- e-Science Talk's Stefan Janusz gives a great introduction to the city which played host to last week's event and discusses the pros and cons of pay-for-use e-infrastructure models.
- Catherine Gater gives her view on the opening plenary session.
- Simon Hettrick of the Software Sustainability Institute writes about the importance of human capital for e-infrastructures.
- Beatrice Bressan discusses the future of EMI and SciencePAD.
- As well as expanding on this topic further, Zara Qadir also gives her view on citizen science initiatives and the International Desktop Grid Federation.
Finally, see photos from the event on Flickr and read the Tweets from delegates attending the Community Forum under the hashtag #egicf13.
