Build repositories to share biodiversity data

Description

galaxias helps users describe, package and share biodiversity information using the 'Darwin Core' data standard, which is the format used and accepted by the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) and its' partner nodes. galaxias is functionally similar to devtools, but with a focus on building Darwin Core Archives rather than R packages.

The package is named for a genus of freshwater fish.
