All,

I would like to announce that the second alpha releases for BioPerl- 
run, BioPerl-db, and BioPerl-network are now available.  These are  
designated as 1.005009_002, with a requirement for BioPerl 1.6 and  
higher (1.006000).

TODO:

1) All subdistributions need updates to the Changes, BUGS, AUTHORS,  
etc files.  Please make updates as needed to the main trunk (I'll  
merge them over to the relevant branch).

FIXED:

1) BioPerl-run TCoffee tests are now passing with latest TCoffee  
version (Charles Plessy and myself)
2) Bio::ConfigData (config module installed via Module::Build) is  
should now be skipped over until we can decide what to do with it  
(Alex Lancaster).  This will also be incorporated into trunk.
3) Several module doc fixes made (Dave Messina and Charles Plessy for  
reporting)
4) Doc updates (BIO!)
5) bioperl-db now handles undefined variables correctly (Johann Pellet  
and Hilmar Lapp)
6) GeneMark tests now work for older gene models (Mark Johnson)
7) Build.PL should now die with a warning if the proper BioPerl core  
version isn't installed

I will likely release the final 1.6 releases for these distributions  
in the next week unless serious issues pop up.  The next point release  
(1.6.1, all distributions) should land sometime in mid-April.

Cheers!
