What is Hydra Connect?
Hydra Connect (hashtag #HydraConnect) is a chance for Hydra Project participants to gather in one place at one time, with an emphasis on synchronizing efforts, technical development, plans, and community links. As the community expands, it is becoming clear that not every Partner will make every meeting, but there is value in ensuring cross-connections across the community, and we'd be well served to have at least one meeting where everyone shows up. Put another way, if a Partner could attend only one meeting in the 2015/2016 academic year, this would be it. Adopters of Hydra, or those considering its adoption, who are not yet Partners are equally welcome to attend and a number of the meeting sessions during the workshops and conference proper will be specifically tailored to their needs.
