[Biojava-l] The future of BioJava

[Matthew Pocock]

Hi all,

There is some active discussion on the dev list about thinking what we 
would change if we could. The current thinking is that the biojava-live 
repository will continue to be developed into a 1.3 release in due 
course. We will at some point start a new cvs repository within which we 
will develop BioJava V2.

I've started a wishlist wiki at 
http://biojava.org/wiki/html/BioJava/BioJava2WishList.html where I have 
collected together some of the ideas being batted arround -dev and 
#biojava. Nothing there is set in stone. We are here to solve your 
problems, so if your pet hate is not represented there, tell us or 
ammend the wiki page. The focus so far is on fixing broken APIs, 
refactoring code and adding project-wide capabilities that are just 
plain missing now. It's not so much a 'you don't have a parser for X' 
wish list. If you want to raise that kind of issue, then mail the list 
and we can set up a wiki of missing stuff.

Don't be shy. Nothing is too trivial or too far reaching.

Best,
Matthew
