[Gmod-help] outreach request

[Dave Clements]

Hi Charles,

The ABRF meeting sounds like a great venue for discussing GBrowse.  Our
experience is that many people struggle with how to visualize the sequence
once they have it.

Scott Cain or myself would be the two most likely people to speak at this
meeting.  We'll discuss this and get back to you next week.

Thanks,

Dave C.
