This is a more mature release of the old "SnowTools", under a new name and after a massive overhaul. This SeqLib release contains the following new additions:

  1. Extensive unit testing
  2. Switch to the Apache2 license and removal of all GPLv3 related code
  3. Addition of BFC for error correction and FermiAssembler for assemblies
  4. Separation of the BLAT capabilities into a separate branch which carries Jim Kent's license
  5. Command-line tool (seqtools) for performing rapid assemblies, error correction and re-alignment all in one step
  6. Unravels a lot of the functionality into separate pieces (e.g. BamReader and BamWriter now separate entities), which makes for more understandable and versatile code
  7. Removal of all dependencies on Boost

SeqLib is also now integrated into VariantBam (https://github.com/jwalabroad/VariantBam) and SnowmanSV (https://github.com/broadinstitute/SnowmanSV)
