Hi everyone,

I am going to share lists of packages/workflows that were mentioned during
the "Kickoff" opening video conference today. Those are possible candidates
for us to work on or to continue working on (if already in Debian):

   - R package for the data collated by Johns Hopkins:
   https://github.com/rOpenStats/COVID19
   - CHIME: COVID-19 Hospital Impact Model for Epidemics:
   https://penn-chime.phl.io
   - COVID-19 Scenario simulator:
   https://github.com/neherlab/covid19_scenarios
   - The ARTIC Network: https://github.com/artic-network. I've seen,
   Porechop and Nanopolish are already in Debian. Maybe, Rampart is another
   possible candidate to package.
   - R wrapper around the COVID Tracking Project API:
   https://github.com/aedobbyn/covid19us

Pipelines/Workflows:

   - https://artic.network/ncov-2019 -- contains some bioinformatics
   protocols and datasets
   - https://github.com/BU-ISCIII/SARS-Cov2_analysis/wiki/Analysis-pipelines
   - Galaxy workflows: https://covid19.galaxyproject.org/genomics/ --
   really nice and well structured, in my opinion
   - Nexstrain workflows: https://github.com/nextstrain/ncov
   - https://github.com/nf-core/viralrecon
   - https://github.com/connor-lab/ncov2019-artic-nf

I also tried to filter out COVID19-related data resources. But, if someone
needs it, there are, for example, wiki pages of `Bio statistics` and `Covid
19 Phylogeny` Topics (
https://github.com/virtual-biohackathons/covid-19-bh20/wiki) with a lot of
links to datasets.

I also mined a bit for some other viral genomics/epidemiology related
software, that is not in Debian. These are not directly related to COVID19,
but, I think, they deserve our attention:

   - https://github.com/HaploConduct/HaploConduct -- Haplotype-aware genome
   assembly toolkit. HaploConduct consists of two methods: SAVAGE (Strain
   Aware VirAl GEnome assembly) and POLYTE (POLYploid genome fitTEr)
   - https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/idseq-dag -- Pipeline engine for
   IDseq (Infectious Disease Sequencing Platform)
   - https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/idseq-bench -- IDseq infectious
   disease benchmarking tools
   - https://github.com/rcs333/VAPiD -- Viral Annotation and Identification
   Pipeline
   - https://github.com/DennisSchmitz/Jovian -- Metagenomics/viromics
   pipeline that focuses on automation, user-friendliness and a clear audit
   trail.
   - https://github.com/viromelab/tracespipe -- Reconstruction and analysis
   of viral and human-host genomes at multi-organ level
   - https://github.com/babinyurii/recan -- genetic distance plotting for
   recombination events analysis
   - https://wupathlabs.wustl.edu/virusseeker/ -- a computational pipeline
   for virus discovery and virome composition analysis
   - https://github.com/kentnf/VirusDetect -- an automated pipeline for
   efficient virus discovery using deep sequencing of small RNAs (Licence - ?)
   - https://github.com/keylabivdc/VIP -- Virus Identification Pipeline
   (Licence - ?)
   - https://github.com/ICBI/viGEN/ -- a bioinformatics pipeline for the
   exploration of viral RNA in human NGS data (Licence - ?)

I hope, it helps someone of you, especially newcomers, to choose a
candidate for packaging.

I wish you all a productive week and hope to be able to contribute as well!

Regards,
Liubov
