Bio::Tree::Compatible is a new module for testing compatibility of 
phylogenetic trees with nested taxa represented as Bio::Tree::Tree 
objects. It is based on a recent characterization of ancestral 
compatibility of semi-labeled trees in terms of their cluster 
representations.

The POD is now complete but tests are still missing and I'm afraid I 
won't be able to work on this until August. However, I've tested this 
module on all pairs of trees from TreeBASE. Any suggestions are welcome.

The theory behind this module can be found at:

Enjoy,
