[Biopython-dev] LocusLink, anybody?

[Michiel de Hoon]

When I was making an inventory of Biopython code involved in accessing NCBI's databases, I came across the Bio.LocusLink module, containing a paser for NCBI's LocusLink. The website for LocusLink is http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/LocusLink/.

However, this website says:
"LocusLink is superceded by Entrez Gene...."
As far as I can tell, LocusLink is no longer used, making Bio.LocusLink superfluous. Did I miss something? Does anybody see a reason for keeping Bio.LocusLink?
