BFAST thanks you for your help! (was: ... needs your help)

Dear seqanswers.com community,

We are preparing an R01 grant proposal to support the continued development of BFAST. To help ensure our funding, and thus continual support and improvement of BFAST, we would greatly appreciate your support emails and letters. Even a one sentence reply saying "I have used bfast", "I use bfast", or "I will use bfast", would be sufficient. I will keep users anonymous to the extent that I can given the grant process.

For those that willing to write letters of support, could you please email me with the letter (nilshomer@gmail.com); alternatively I can give you an address to which you can send the letter. Please give a brief description of the project(s) for which BFAST was used, how it has helped you, and how you will use it going forward. Feel free to send comments or suggestions to the BFAST mailing list (bfast-help@lists.sourceforge.net) or myself personally.

I am personally committed to supporting BFAST regardless and thank all the users who, through great feedback and suggestions, have made BFAST into what it is today.

Sincerely,

Nils Homer

I have only heard about BFAST and not yet had a chance to use it, but everything I heard at the NowGen conference was really positive. In this field, where we are all seeking to extract the greatest potential from the voluminous data, we cannot afford the loss of such a valuable tool. I hope that you get the funding to support it.
