This is the release of bioperl-biocorba client and server code which
provides mappings to Alan Robinson's updates to the biocorba IDL.  

 Signifigant changes include
 * Fuzzy location handling
 * Vector/Iterator methods rather than streams
 * more generic method names

Code is available as tarballs at
ftp://bioperl.org/pub/DIST/bioperl-corba-server-0.2.tar.gz
ftp://bioperl.org/pub/DIST/bioperl-corba-client-0.2.tar.gz

This code requires bioperl v 0.7 to be installed.

This code is still considered to be experimental so methods can
potentially change in future versions.  Additionally bugs may exist so do
not use in a production environment without first performing some serious
stress testing.  Your feedback on these modules and the IDL will help
improve the code's stability and make it more useful to a greater range of
people.

Thanks to Ewan Birney, Brad Chapman, Alan Robinson, Jason Stajich, and the
biocorba members who provided feedback.

Jason Stajich on behalf of the biocorba developers.
