With the release Biopython 1.43 and Bio.SeqIO earlier this year, would 
anyone be upset if the older Bio.FormatIO module was marked as 
deprecated for the next Biopython release?
This module isn't mentioned in the tutorial/cookbook, but Brad did write 
this entire document:
http://www.biopython.org/DIST/docs/cookbook/genbank_to_fasta.pdf
http://www.biopython.org/DIST/docs/cookbook/genbank_to_fasta.html
In addition to marking Bio.FormatIO as deprecated, I would probably add 
a big disclaimer to that document, or re-write it to use Bio.SeqIO instead.
Thanks
Peter
