[Open-bio-l] biosql schema in Oracle

[Matthew Pocock]

Hi.

I am interested in and have used BioSQL for orthogonal persistance of 
BioJava sequence object & feature hierachies. Also, I've used it to 
store swissprot. I am only interested in storing genbank & swissprot via 
the existing biojava sequence object APIs, and for my needs don't have 
full ascii-art round tripping of these file formats as a requirement. 
Semantic round tripping would be good, but this (imho) is best done by 
having semantic round tripping from the file format to the object layer 
and between the object layer and biosql. Note, I do not have sematic 
identity as a requirement, just round tripping. Are we going to put a 
use cases document (intended, actual and wish-list) together?
