Description
Situation: The UCSC DAS data provider has access to a large number of genomes and datasets that are very useful for IGB users. However, the UCSC DAS endpoint can be slow and it is unclear how much longer UCSC will support it as they have created a new JSON API with the same functionality.
Task: Investigate the feasibility of altering the IGB UCSC DAS logic to add a new JSON API endpoint.
