I wonder though how that fits in with our current plan, that iRODS mostly would handle data when stored on SweStore, while when running analyses, one would check out data as normal files (basically since handling data directly, via iRODS is quite cumbersome).\r\n\r\nI think these are the kind of things for which an IRL meeting could help ... to decide on what we should aim for in these regards.","id":3160668,"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/UPPMAX/irods/issues/comments/3160668"}}
