Exactly! So the modular idea would work nicely here - we could have a blast module and only update that single module (which would be its own JAR) whenever the format changes. In a way, BioJava releases as such would no longer happen, except maybe for some kind of core BioJava module. Everything would be done in terms of individual module+JAR releases instead - one for Genbank, one for BioSQL, one for NEXUS, one for Phylogenetic tools, one for translation/transcription, etc. etc. cheers, Richard -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHS/0j4C5LeMEKA/QRAkQuAJ9B+mmV7vo9QuFYwEgmnHczExyXqwCfamIx uPFQKdbXRC7pwC6lM5aBcJk= =F3PD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Biojava-l mailing list - Biojava-l@lists.open-bio.org http://lists.open-bio.org/mailman/listinfo/biojava-l
