[Bioperl-l] problem about format convertion

[Chris Fields]

Just to note, the Bio::Assembly modules aren't really geared towards  
using Solexa data as far as I know (and there is the problem of the  
ulimit bug that still isn't fixed).

There is interest in getting them up-to-speed but it needs someone  
with the time to do it.
