Ewan propbly means that Variation code should be part of the main
bioperl cvs but should form a separate module after 0.7 is out. I do
not think this a good idea. I'd like to keep Variation and LiveSeq
namespaces within Bioperl main distribution. 

There is an issue of Ensembl needing a copy of Variation code which
would favour moving thing over to a saparate module but it can be
handled by other means: e.g. by copying the objects over temporarily.
