The SeqHound developers apparently have a rudimentary set of BioPerl
modules written, but they aren't "production quality" yet from what I
have heard (I haven't tried them - I just use their procedural API with
great satisfaction!).
I'm sure they will put these modules into the BioPerl CVS as soon as
they are up to snuff. They're a good bunch :-)
