[Biojava-l] sp-ml modules

[Guoneng Zhong]

Hi,
I am working on classes that interact with the newly proposed SPML 
format for Swissprot db.  I am still trying to figure out if a live 
interface to an xml result exists yet.  Waiting for folks at ebi to 
return my email.  In the meantime, I am new to developing stuff for 
biojava.  I am not sure what most of you and your colleagues would 
expect from my classes.  Do I simply let you set search criteria and 
bam, you get a class that encapsulates all the information in the xml 
data?  Or do I use some existing interface but create behind the scene 
xml retrieval and parsing so that you don't need to write new code to 
use my classes (with minor changes, of course).  if the latter case, 
where are these interfaces that I must conform to?

Thanks,
Guoneng
