Roaring.jl

Hi, I thought I’d put a small announcement out, I’ve decided to start a package called Roaring.jl to implement roaring bitmaps for julia (https://github.com/Ward9250/Roaring.jl). I’m doing this as part of my longer term postdoc project to bring population genomics infrastructure to Julia/BioJulia. Such bitmaps and other bitmaps like WAH will be used by said infrastructure.

Last week I started working on the array containers component.

Of course contributions and comments are always welcome.

Thanks! :slight_smile:

Inreresting! Good luck. This could be useful in several areas, like indexing DataFrames.
