[Seqan-dev] [ANNOUNCE] External contribution: Availability of alf

[Manuel Holtgrewe <manuel.holtgrewe@fu-berlin.de>]

Dear all,

I am happy to announce the availability of Jonathan Göke's alignment
free comparison code in the SeqAn repository. There is an application
called alf that allows the comparison of sequences based on word
properties which is available from the SeqAn homepage:

     http://www.seqan.de/projects/alf.html

The driving code behind this application is available as the SeqAn
module alignment_free in extras. The full documentation of this module
is available in the current trunk API documentation, for example see:

     http://docs.seqan.de/seqan/dev2/?i=Class.AFScore

This marks the first external contribution of a whole module and app to 
SeqAn. We hope that its success will serve as a role model for future 
contributions.

If one of you wants to contribute sequence analysis code to SeqAn then 
do not hesitate to contact us!

Best Regards,
Manuel
