[Vp-integration-subgroup] Recap from joint meeting regarding the white paper

[Jacob Barhak]

Greetings subgroups,

As promised the merging of both papers have started.

Here are some technicalities:

The title of the jint white paper will be:
Model Integration in Computational Biology: the Role of Reproducibility,
Credibility and Utility

The author of the paper will be:
Multiscale Modeling and Viral Pandemics Working Group

I looked through all the edit list on the paper and found the following
contributors:
Jonathan Karr
Rahuman Sheriff
James Osborne
Gilberto Gonzalez Parra
Eric Forgoston
Ruth Bowness
Yaling Liu
Robin Thompson
Winston Garira

The Anonymous contributor on January 25, 2:13 PM added the words: ". There
are also challenges in gaining testable insight. Are they truly necessary?
". . However, unless the contributor identifies themselves, I cannot add
their name and may remove this sentence since it seems misplaced and not
attributed to any person.

If I missed any contributor, please let me know so I can add the person to
the list of contributors. I just looked at the changes history on the
document and pulled names - if anyone added text using an account by
someone else, let me know.

Also, I will wait for a couple of more days for any last minute
contributions. I will ask for anyone who wanted to contribute and did
not have a chance to edit the papers directly over the weekend. I will do
my best to integrate changes done over the weekend, yet I cannot guarantee
adding any more changes - we had enough time to make those edits and  we
need to wrap things up at some point.

I will send the link to the combined draft paper once it is in good shape
for approval.

I will try my best to harmonize all contributions and maintain flow. Yet
there are a lot of discussions and open end issues left, so I am not sure
how practical it is.

If anyone wants to help editing, let me know.

Hopefully you will find the final product in good shape.

              Jacob
