[Bioperl-l] [ANNOUNCEMENT] Alpha 1.6 releases of BioPerl-run, BioPerl-db, BioPerl-network

[Mark A. Jensen]

As I understand it, Foo::Bar::ConfigData is generated by M:B to provide 
persistent access to
the configuration parameters after (perhaps long after) installation, via a 
script
config_data that comes with M:B. Is there a collision between Bio::ConfigData 
created by
the main distribution and Bio::ConfigData created by bioperl-run?
See the docs at
