Debian Med sprint in Berlin on 15 and 16 February

The Debian Med team works on software packages that are associated with medicine, pre-clinical research, and life sciences, and makes them available for the Debian distribution. Seven Debian developers and contributors to the team gathered for their annual Sprint, in Berlin, Germany on 15 and 16 February 2025. The purpose of the meeting was to tackle bugs in Debian-Med packages, enhance the quality of the team's packages, and coordinate the efforts of team members overall.

This sprint allowed participants to fix dozens of bugs, including release-critical ones. New upstream versions were uploaded, and the participants took some time to modernize some packages. Additionally, they discussed the long-term goals of the team, prepared a forthcoming invited talk for a conference, and enjoyed working together.
