Hi...

I've now merged your contributions into the main BioJava
tree.  I've just picked up one minor issue -- now that
the test cases are merged with the main BioJava test
suite, they no longer run.  I've traced this to the XML
parser trying to resolve the external DTD subset (your
test data just gives a system ID of "agave.dtd"), so the
file has to be available in the current directory.

Unless you've got any objections, I'll put the DTD
under the resources/ tree, then add in a little 
EntityResolver so that Agave documents can pick it
up automatically.

I'm going to have fairly limited 'net access for the next
week or so, but I'll get the code checked in ASAP when
I get back post-holidays.

Thanks,

    Thomas.
