swcarpentry We'd like to run more boot camps in the southeast and midwest of the US: do we have friends there who'd like to host?

@recology_ When faced with this prob:
pandoc md → tex
add nice latex tables then
pandoc tex → html → pdf

md not good for difficult layouts.

@LizNeeley @JacquelynGill @jebyrnes Not disputing that point. Even outside of this context it’s imp. for us to take charge of our identities
