The alignUtilities.t flop is my fault; forgot to remove those when I  
changed bracket_strings to a SimpleAlign class method.  I committed a  
change to CVS and they should pass now.  I'll add those tests back to  
SimpleAlign when I can.  As for other work, I still have more work to  
do on the RNA_SearchIO tests since they're throwing warnings due to  
seqfeatures w/o sequences, but they should all pass.

The SNP tests pass on my end, but I really need to run a clean  
checkout and rerun tests.

I like that!  You should talk to Jason, Mauricio, or Chris D. about  
adding this to the bioperl website with live updates (like PDOC or  
Deobfuscator).  It would be a valuable resource and give us close to  
real-time progress on what modules need work, etc.
