[GSoC] weekly report #4

[P. Troshin]

Also I cannot help it but the Samba file server is the first thing
that comes to my mind when I hear sambamba.

I think that my favorite so far is damtools, because its terribly
close to samtools, which is where you want to be I guess.
However, I can see why its not everybody's favorite and unfortunately
there are already at least a few other damtools around
