[galaxy-dev] RPM repository for NGS tools in Galaxy

Dear colleagues,

In order to ease administration on our servers running at VIB and NBIC, we will set up an RPM Repository for bioinformatics tools, the primary focus being NGS tools. The purpose is to come to a stable repository of easily installable packages for the common bioinformatics tools that can be used in a local Galaxy server.

A list of tools under consideration can be found at https://wiki.nbic.nl/index.php/NBIC_%26_VIB_Bioinformatics_RPM_Repository

So are there already similar activities going on? If yes, we would really love to hear your experience and probably work together on this.

If you would like to join this effort and contribute into this repository, you are more than welcome to contact us as well!

Thanks, Leon
