For bioinformatics there is some apparent dormant effort to collaborate
with all the upstream folks that flocks annually with the BOSC meetings
http://open-bio.org/wiki/BOSC/liveCD that I hope to revive this summer.
The idea was to have a bunch of talk and/or tutorials bundled that
should somehow integrate the tools towards something bigger, like a
training machinery. Noone spared the resources yet, though.
