Basically, we have a new biocore library, and I'm hacking bits and
pieces out of the old biolib to fit them onto biocore.

Unfortunately, we don't (yet) have any centralized repository or
bug/feature tracking, you might look at the biohaskell.org wiki, I know
I've sometimes jotted down suggestions.

One imortant piece of functionality that could be ripped from biolib and
made into a separate library, is the BLAST output parser¹.  This could
also do with some cleanup, and would make a nice, standalone project.
It's also fairly open-ended.  If you're more interested in algorithms,
there's some stuff for sequence alignments that I was never quite
satisfied with.

In the end, it depends a lot on your interests and skill set.  Please
keep us updated, and feel free to post any questions to this list.
