[Phylobase-devl] Aug. virtual hackathon

[Marguerite Butler]

This does sound great. Some of the students I've worked with would  
really appreciate a more stable package that was also easier to install.

But I won't be able to participate this time. Need to work on my  
tenure packet (ugg) and upcoming classes.
