[BioPython] Questions & suggestions

[Thomas Hamelryck]

Hi everybody,

I recently moved to a new position and of course immediately started
to convert my colleagues to (Bio)Python :-). One of the most often asked 
questions with respect to Biopython here is "Does Biopython have the same 
functionalities as Bioperl?". Is there a document somewhere that compares 
BioPerl and BioPython? Would be REALLY useful. 

Another question: is anybody using BioPerl from BioPython? 
If so, how? BioCorba?

And then some suggestions: I think it's time to do something about the 
Biopython documentation, and maybe remove some obsolete, incomplete and/or 
unmaintained code. At the moment it's a bit difficult to get a good overview 
of what is present and useable in Biopython, I think... 

Brad, I vaguely remember that you mentioned something about replacing 
HappyDoc? I'd be happy to help out.... 

Best regards,
