Discuss other biom conversion servers (galaxy) #27

Closed iimog closed 7 years ago

As a referee to our f1000 article notes:

There are other BIOM conversion servers that exist, e.g. implementations within the Galaxy framework - see https://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/repository/display_tool?repository_id=b3ae8ca9317b000e&render_repository_actions_for=tool_shed&tool_config=%2Fsrv%2Ftoolshed%2Fmain%2Fvar%2Fdata%2Frepos%2F002%2Frepo_2436%2Fbiom_convert.xml&changeset_revision=501c21cce614 - these alternate tools should be mentioned in the text. How does the biom-conversion-server compare with (and potentially improve on) such Galaxy based tools?
