Aha, okay. You got there from Google, I guess? That is *way* out of date.

To the other core devs, in order to prevent this confusion in the future,
I'd like to delete the Core/ directory from our website since it's been
superseded at this point by other docs and is not current. I intend to put
up a ticket at Redmine, but I will wait a bit before doing so to allow time
for people to see this and comment — please do speak up if there's good
reason to keep it.


Could you please give me the link to join this forum to see other

Sure, you can sign up for the mailing list here:

 <http://lists.open-bio.org/mailman/listinfo/bioperl-l>
> http://lists.open-bio.org/mailman/listinfo/bioperl-l


And the archives are also searchable:

    http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.perl.bio.general


Please let me know if you have any suggestion for me to keep learning the
> bioperl.


I would also suggest reading the (current) tutorial and HOWTOs at
www.bioperl.org . Lots of good links on the main page there, particularly
under the Documentation heading.
