Strandedness #68

Description of feature

Hi,

I just wonder about the function of the Strandedness column in the sample sheet. Is this column really necessary and what is the function of it? I couldn't find any information about it in the documentation.

I ran all three possible cases (forward, reverse, unstranded) on some mouse data and got no differences between the different strandedness options.

Best, Axel

It is not used anywhere in the process, hence it can be removed.
