[Biojava-l] Homologene parser update?

[Gary Bader]

Hi Mark,
	Thanks.  The changes that NCBI made to their file formats are large, so 
I could write another builder/parser for the new file format, but it 
would not map completely to the existing parser (which is now broken 
because of NCBI format changes to even the deprecated file format).  If 
I want to contribute code, who decides that the code is worthy (e.g. 
does a design review)?  Ideally, this would happen before I start coding.
	I haven't figured out if I am going to use the existing framework for 
my current project, since the file format has become simpler, but I 
would like to contribute if possible.

Thanks,
Gary
