[Bioperl-l] Press Release for Bioperl 1.0

[Richard Jacob]

Hi,

Late last year Jason Stajich prepared a PPM package for Bioperl 0.7.2. 
Jason, is there any chance of a making a PPM package for 1.0? It would help 
us Windows/ActiveState/newbie users immensely.

Also congratulations to everyone involved with the release of Bioperl 1.0.
