        scikit-bio is an open-source, BSD-licensed Python package providing data structures, algorithms and educational resources for bioinformatics.
        
        To view scikit-bio's documentation, visit `scikit-bio.org
        <http://scikit-bio.org>`__.
        
        scikit-bio is currently in beta. We are very actively developing it, and **backward-incompatible interface changes can and will arise**. To avoid these types of changes being a surprise to our users, our public APIs are decorated to make it clear to users when an API can be relied upon (stable) and when it may be subject to change (experimental). See the `API stability docs <https://github.com/biocore/scikit-bio/blob/master/doc/source/user/api_stability.rst>`_ for more details, including what we mean by *stable* and *experimental* in this context.
        
        Installing
        ----------
        
        To install the latest release of scikit-bio::
        
            pip install scikit-bio
        
        Equivalently, you can use the ``conda`` package manager available in `Anaconda <http://continuum.io/downloads>`_ or `miniconda <http://conda.pydata.org/miniconda.html>`_ to install scikit-bio and its dependencies without having to compile them::
        
            conda install -c https://conda.anaconda.org/biocore scikit-bio
        
        Finally, most of scikit-bio's dependencies (in particular, the ones that are trickier to build) are also available, albeit only for Python 2, in `Canopy Express <https://www.enthought.com/canopy-express/>`_.
        
        You can verify your installation by running the scikit-bio unit tests::
        
            python -m skbio.test
        
        Getting help
        ------------
        
        To get help with scikit-bio, you should use the `skbio <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/skbio>`_ tag on StackOverflow (SO). Before posting a question, check out SO's guide on how to `ask a question <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/how-to-ask>`_. The scikit-bio developers regularly monitor the ``skbio`` SO tag.

        ---------
        
        scikit-bio is available under the new BSD license. See
        `COPYING.txt <https://github.com/biocore/scikit-bio/blob/master/COPYING.txt>`__ for scikit-bio's license, and the
        `licenses directory <https://github.com/biocore/scikit-bio/tree/master/licenses>`_ for the licenses of third-party software that is

        The pre-history of scikit-bio
        -----------------------------
        
        scikit-bio began from code derived from `PyCogent
        <http://www.pycogent.org>`__ and `QIIME <http://www.qiime.org>`__, and
        the contributors and/or copyright holders have agreed to make the code
        they wrote for PyCogent and/or QIIME available under the BSD
        license. The contributors to PyCogent and/or QIIME modules that have
        been ported to scikit-bio are: Rob Knight (`@rob-knight
