[Bioperl-l] GenBankParser comparison to bioperl parser

[Lincoln Stein]

As long as John understands the implications of what he wants to do -- that 
is, committing to be "the man" for maintaining the parser in perpetuity -- I 
don't see why the parser shouldn't be squirreled away in a subdirectory of 
bioperl designated "contrib".  I don't think that the parser should be placed 
parallel to the current SeqIO API at the risk of confusing lots of newbies.
