Hi, I'm on Ubuntu 18.10 and I've successfully installed nest to `/usr`.
I'm interested in writing my own synapse models and found these instructions for getting started: https://nest.github.io/nest-simulator/extension_modules
The configuration step, `cmake -Dwith-nest=/usr/bin/nest-config ../MyModule` works fine. However, when I ran `make` I received the following compiler error:
```
~/Projects/NEST/MyModule/mymodule.cpp: In member function ‘virtual void mynest::MyModule::init(SLIInterpreter*)’:
~/Projects/NEST/MyModule/mymodule.cpp:128:24: error: no matching function for call to ‘nest::ModelManager::register_connection_model<mynest::DropOddSpikeConnection<nest::TargetIdentifierPtrRport> >(const char [17])’
"drop_odd_synapse" );

I am not sure how to deal with this, and any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
Dear all!
We are going to have a NEST issue review VC tomorrow morning (Friday 10 Jan 10-13 CET) in the usual VC room for developer VCs (https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/wiki/Connection-Details). The main aim is to review open issues in preparation of the NEST 3 merge and (eventually) release.
Excuse the short notice, still booting up for 2020.
Best,
Hans Ekkehard

Log-in information
------------------
We use a virtual conference room provided by DFN (Deutsches Forschungsnetz).
You can use the web client to connect. We however encourage everyone to
use a headset for better audio quality or even a proper video
conferencing system (see below) or software when available.
Web client
* Visit https://conf.dfn.de/webapp/conference/97938800
* Enter your name and allow your browser to use camera and microphone
* The conference does not need a PIN to join, just click join and you're in.
In case you see a dfnconf logo and the phrase "Auf den
Meetingveranstalter warten", just be patient, the meeting host needs to
join first (a voice will tell you).
VC system/software
How to log in with a video conferencing system, depends on you VC system
or software.
- Using the H.323 protocol (eg Polycom): vc.dfn.net##97938800 or
194.95.240.2##97938800
- Using the SIP protocol:97938800@vc.dfn.de
- By telephone: +49-30-200-97938800
For those who do not have a video conference system or suitable
software, Polycom provides a pretty good free app for iOS and Android,
so you can join from your tablet (Polycom RealPresence Mobile, available
from AppStore/PlayStore). Note that firewalls may interfere with
videoconferencing in various and sometimes confusing ways.
For more technical information on logging in from various VC systems,
