This is the major milestone release (v1.0.0) of bettercallsal with the following changes:

• The Illumina short read pipeline (bettercallsal) has been very stable over many hundreds of runs and we are excited to announce support for Oxford Nanopore long reads which can be activated with --pipeline bettercallsal_lr option.
• The long read variant of the pipeline uses filtlong for long read filtering and flye for assembly.
• abricate databases have been updated.
