Hi Jeremy;

Yeastgenome.com doesn't resolve for me, so I'm not exactly sure
which website you are referring to. The sites I do see with yeast
genome data are the Stanford and MIPS sites:
http://genome-www.stanford.edu/Saccharomyces/
http://mips.gsf.de/genre/proj/yeast/index.jsp
Not being a yeast person I'm not sure which site is most often used,
but both definitely seem like good resources. Either way, we
definitely welcome functionality to interact with on-line
information like these.

Definitely. Re-usable code interacting with online databases is
always welcome in Biopython. If you are looking at including, please
do make sure you've checked out the documentation about
contributing:

Thanks for bringing it up and good luck with the coding!
