[BioRuby] Post Hackathon tasks

[Jan Aerts]

Goto-san, Raoul and I are involved in making sure that we can
import/export from/to the main file and database formats such as EMBL,
GenBank and BioSQL. See http://hackathon.dbcls.jp/wiki/OpenBio%2A for
more info. Basically this involves reading such file into a
Bio::Sequence, exporting it and reading it in a second time. The first
version of the Bio::Sequence should be the same as the second one...

As you can see in lib/bio/db, there are quite a few formats to do, so
any help there would be appreciated.

And this is all completely apart from any webservices related stuff that
might be done...
