[Bioperl-l] Unused or incomplete modules in bioperl-live

[Chris Fields]

I have a place on the wiki where I have been tracking deprecated and
potentially deprecated modules:

http://www.bioperl.org/wiki/Deprecated_modules

I would say add anything you think may apply there.  Or if you think it's
worth saving, add it to the project priority list, maybe?  

A few more Jason pointed out which we could deprecate (which I haven't added
yet) were Bio::Symbol modules, thought they may still be oof some use to
someone out there willing to take care of them.
