The acs-discuss (at) eso.org mailing list is the official way ACS communicates with its customers and we are going to use that for this workshop too. Make sure to be subscribed to the mailing or drop us an email.
There is also an email-based interface for users of your list; you can get info about using it by sending a message with just the word `help' as subject or in the body, to: acs-discuss-request (at) eso.org
From July 27th to 31st, 2020
The workshop will be held virtually, co-hosted by ALMA and CTA observatories. The connection details will be updated as soon as they get confirmed.
Legend of background colors:
It is assumed that all participants are sufficiently knowledgeable about object oriented programming in C++, Java and/or python. Links to relevant information can be found in the reference documentation (see below). The course is based on previous experiences that have been organized since 2004 and consists of a technical hands-on course using the ALMA Common Software (ACS) framework, alternated with short technical talks and discussions.
The advanced column is intentionally left open to decide items to discuss all together as the workshop evolves.
