[Bioperl-l] ppm of bioperl release candidate

[Scott Cain]

Thanks Nathan,

I did as Lincoln suggested and just tarred up the blib directory.  The
ppd file I already had will serve, as for me at least, I just need the
prerequisites that are needed for gbrowse--trying to do more is beyond
what I want for right now.

Thanks,
Scott
