Forge BSgenome data package for NCBI assembly bStrHab1.2.pri #63

Create BSgenome data package for NCBI assembly bStrHab1.2.pri. More to be added.

Thanks for helping the cause of the poor endangered kākāpō bird! :wink:

I would suggest that you open an issue to register this assembly in GenomeInfoDb. Once it's registered, it will be quite easy for anybody to forge the corresponding BSgenome data package, if they need it, and even more so with the new forgeBSgenomeDataPkgFromNCBI() function that you are working on. So we won't really need to create this package ourselves and/or add it to Bioconductor (note that we normally do this for UCSC genomes, regardless of demand, but for NCBI assemblies, only if there's actually a strong demand).

Oh yes, definitely. Because of the work I had been doing so far I'd automatically gone straight to forging the package instead! Let me close this issue. Thank you.
