Your memory is correct, I was one of those who expressed interest in
this respect. Unfortunately, summer does not mean less work / more time
to spare for me... but if an initiative was started, I think I could spare
a few hours per week...

At the very least, I will now get to those old pieces of software I hacked
up, and see how the concepts I used then could be sensibly integrated into
a BioPython framework.

As you probably recall from the previous thread on this issue, there's
Rick Ree's Mavric (http://www.bioinformatics.org/mavric/), the code is
certainly worth looking at.
