[Bioperl-l] BioHackathon 2008

[Heikki Lehvaslaiho]

Hi all,

BioHackathon 2008 is happening right now in Tokyo, Japan.

See http://hackathon.dbcls.jp/

The focus is on web services but some direct work on Bio* projects is getting 
done, too.

See page: http://hackathon.dbcls.jp/wiki/OpenBio* for ideas thrown in the air.

I just had a look how well the most common sequence file formats survive 
reading from a flat file into BioPerl objects and writing back into the same 
format:
