@svheeringen did you figure out a way to do this? you got me thinking about this and I feel like it might not be too hard to write something that could do this with websockets + reveal.js

Anyone else interested in switching from HPC environment modules to linux containers to manage shared group software? Here's how I did it: https://t.co/lufT4ChAK2

[Nathan Sheffield @shefflab]

@svheeringen @tangming2005 @scarsoncallahan The development version of regenie implements a `refgenie compare` function that uses a bitwise flag system (think samtools flags) to describe compatibility between two genome assemblies. https://t.co/USKVihNntI

[Nathan Sheffield @shefflab]

@svheeringen @tangming2005 @scarsoncallahan we've been thinking a lot about the compatibility question and have some ideas under development -- maybe we can collaborate on ideas for ensuring compatibility. https://t.co/ZRpJEJvKps
