Distributing popvcf as a conda package

[ningOTI]

Congrats on the recent 1.0 release! May I ask if there are any plans to release popvcf as a conda package, maybe via conda-forge or bioconda?

Thanks. I hadn't consider it yet but I don't have any reason not to do so. Out of curiosity, why do you prefer a conda release over getting the static binary?

I use snakemake for all my workflows. Snakemake can automatically manage software dependencies at each step with conda, including during remote cloud execution. In that context, it would be easier and better for documentation to include popvcf as a conda package, rather than adding a wget before each step requiring popvcf.
