This is great, thanks! We've been considering the idea of a conda
recipe for some time, but knowing that there's interest (and enough to
open a PR) is definitely appreciated.

For our part, we'll help make sure that the recipe always provides the
latest version. Were there any other features you were looking to have
available from bioconda, e.g. bin/omero?

Anyone else out there using conda currently?

All the best,
~Josh

p.s. for anyone who would like to give Thomas' work a try, this
Dockerfile is one place to start:

FROM continuumio/miniconda
RUN /opt/conda/bin/conda install -c bioconda python-omero=5.2.7
RUN adduser omero
USER omero
