Web portal - user to download the output file

[kbshimmyo]

The mid-way presentation of Jan 23 left the impression that it's important to researchers to be able to download just the subset of SRA data that agrees with the whitelisted genome DB (or isn't included in the blacklisted genome DB).

If the reference-DB genome data and the SRA data is being downloaded from the same place [NCBI?], that entity could host a website frontend for this, to let the user download the eventual output file (and maybe a log file for provenance-tracking with details of exactly what data files were used).

Fully agree, this would be really great! Instead of having to perform the full (albeit streaming) download this could be done in-house without the need to transfer the full SRA files over the internet. 👍
