[Bioperl-l] new website launched

[Heikki Lehvaslaiho]

Congratulations and huge thank you for the production team!

The new website is a big step ahead readability and ease in editing the 
information.

I for my part have already corrected a few small typos and omissions on the 
new pages. I invite other to do the same.
