[Bioperl-l] Bio::Tools::Phylo::PAML with (baseml from PAML package)

[Ryan Golhar]

I've managed to code three methods to calculate K into a perl script
using the algorithms as described in "Molecular Evolution" by Wen-Hsuing
Li.   I'd be happy to contribute it as a script...

baseml is not well-supported to my knowledge - I think I started with  
attempt to capture a small amount of the data in the file.  There are  
some people who have made modifications to possible parse it in-house  
but I know of no submitted patches.   Many of the knowledgeable  
people are probably at the evolution meetings  this week.

I have no idea about the full set of information in the report files  
without going back to the Yang papers first.   It depends on how much  
of that information you really want to capture of just the  
substitution rates.

I'm Ccing Alisha in case she has ideas/solutions from her drosophila  
work+PAML.
