Data management

[smanel]

We have to think to which genetic data we can use to test methods: it can be our own dataset, or data available on the web.

That's a good point. It would be beneficial to think about the different types of genetic data we can use. Things like RAD and GBS are popular, but there are other methods such as targeted sequence capture.

Coming from a small institution, we're not equipped to do next-gen sequencing, so to represent the broad small scale work that will turn to R for analyses, I'd like to see traditional dataset of microsats and sequences. I can provide some of our datasets as examples.

Small DNA sequences or microsat datasets are already available in several
packages, but new ones are most welcome. The only limitation is that they
can be shared publicly on the web (not just by the participants, by
everyone). It would be very useful to list them on the wiki of the event.

I created the page on the wiki:

Please feel free to add yours! =D
