No updates to 1.6.x if they have been moved out (with the exception of Bio::Root).

We need to end-of-life 1.6.x at some point.  It's worth having a meeting to talk about what needs to be done and to maybe discuss 1.7.x(Google or IRC).  IRC may be easier.I can set up a poll, maybe see who wants to participate...

WrapperBase is essentially the common core for all the wrappers (a few don’t use it, but most do).  So it really belongs in bioperl-run, as well as StandAloneBlast.  The only real reason this and the other Tool::Run modules were in bioperl-live was legacy, but I think this hampers bioperl-run development frankly, as it relies on bioperl-live (via WrapperBase).  If all the wrapper code were part of bioperl-run fixes would be much easier to make and release independently.

It seems to have been added already empty in https://github.com/bioperl/bioperl-live/commit/64ab09ecd40abb8cd06e9b80aafcda323d1dc47e, maybe by mistake. It appears to be the only empty file in the repo. Should I delete it??

Yes, go ahead and do that.
