[Biojava-dev] BioJava 3 Proposal

[Andy Yates]

This is quite a cool little feature really. Gets over that inital 
problem of how do you specify multiple implementations of something at 
runtime (something I've just done but this seems like a far better fit). 
Anyway looks good will report back on how easy it is to do & how well it 
works :)
