[Biojava-dev] Distribution serialization

[Thomas Down]

I've just had another hack at distribution serialization -- this clears 
up some rather fragile contracts between different classes, and allows 
IndexedNthOrderDistributions to be usably serialized.

I hope this won't affect anyone too much (you're not using 
serialization for long-term data storage, are you?), but if you've got 
your own Distribution implementations which extend 
AbstractDistribution, and need to serialize them, you might have to 
make a few changes -- look at SimpleDistribution for an example.
