[Biojava-l] new problem: serializable

two ideas.

if you know a resource you can refetch the record from, then you only have 
to serialize the identifier at that resource then when you deserialize, 
simply go to that resource.

the other is to use XStream (http://xstream.codehaus.org/), which is open 
source, and i found does a good job.

cheers,
michael
