[Biojava-l] Problem with blast file parser

[Andreas Prlic]

Hi,

We had a couple of bug reports recently regarding issues that already
got fixed in the latest biojava builds from SVN. I think it is time to
start preparing the next biojava release ( 1.7 )  to make sure
everybody gets up to the latest status...
