[Bioperl-l] Whither Bio::FeatureIO?

[Scott Cain]

Hi Chris,

I almost forgot about this thread.  Yes, there are still tools in the GMOD
distribution (including the GFF bulk loader) that use Bio::FeatureIO.  I'm
still using 1.6.901 for most things, so I've not been bitten by its being
gone.  A distribution on CPAN would probably be best, and a corresponding
new release of Chado (because I have all the time in the world to work on
that!) to go with it.

I haven't looked--what's the state of it now?

Scott
