GenomeTools Library

By Daniel, 

I am an avid user of and contributor to the GenomeTools library, a collection of excellent genome informatics tools. Most of my contributions come in the form of small patches, bug reports, and feature requests, although I have implemented one core data structure.

In many ways GenomeTools served as a model for my development of the AEGeAn Toolkit. The GenomeTools development community is small but active, and were very accomodating when I first starting using their API, and then later when I began patching and extending it. I can thank these kind folks for most of what I know about software engineering!
