I guess for non-German speakers andy might be a random 4 letter
combination and nobody will confuse it with the tyical nickname of
a German Andreas. :-)

Kind regards

Bug#800932: ITP: andi -- Efficient Estimation of Evolutionary Distances

[Fabian Klötzl]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: "Fabian Klötzl" 

* Package name: andi
  Version : 0.9.4
  Upstream Author : Fabian Klötzl 
* URL : https://github.com/EvolBioInf/andi
* License : GPL
  Programming Lang: C
  Description : Efficient Estimation of Evolutionary Distances

This is the andi program for estimating the evolutionary distance between 
closely related genomes. These distances can be used to rapidly infer 
phylogenies for big sets of genomes. Because andi does not compute full 
alignments, it is so efficient that it scales even up to thousands of bacterial 
genomes.

I am the upstream author and think this program is useful for the scientific 
community to rapidly infer phylogenies. The Debian package will be maintained 
as part of the Debian Med team.

Great, I'll stick with "andi" then and continue packaging.

Thanks for the quick advice
