[Bioperl-l] Is Bio::Root::Xref redundant?

[Chris Fields]

This is the only link which has any relevant information:

http://bioperl.org/pipermail/bioperl-l/2001-January/004854.html

According to Hilmar's post there, I would say there are a few  
Bio::Root classes that are long overdue for a dirt nap.

Glad to see you're on top of things!
