Looks great. Thanks for doing this -- it's definitely a positive
thing to get the word out about Biopython.

Thanks. Sure I'll take my name on more papers :-).

If you want more examples of real life applications using Biopython,
I've recently stuck up a page with code I'm using for my graduate
research:

It's not really a software demo kind of thing but is at least an
application of using Biopython for something "real." Also, if you
want to steal stuff from my BOSC biopython talk you are more then
welcome -- there's a tarball of the talk plus the LaTeX and
associated figures at:

Good luck with the presentation!
