[Bioperl-l] "Project OpenLab" (working title)

[Rutger Vos]

The TreeBaseII team (part of the cipres project: http://www.phylo.org) 
are working on a lab database system for storage of intermediate 
calculation results and data (sequence alignments, trees, taxon sets). I 
think what you're discussing is a bit more molecular and less 
phylogenetic, but it does sound similar in spirit.
