[Biopython] Google Summer of Code 2014 - Call for project ideas

[Kevin Murray]

Saket,

Apologies in advance if this is a little too unsolicited! =)

Feel free to use pyNGSQC[1] as the basis for some of the proposed QC
stuff, if it is of any use. I've been meaning to refactor this to use
Biopython and in the long term submit a pull request, but I doubt I'll
have time. I can share the refactoring progress with you/push it to
github if you're interested.

Cheers,

Kevin
