In Biopython 1.48 the module Bio.Transcribe was described as obsolete,
both in the docstring and the tutorial which also warned it was likely
to be deprecated:
> 3.9 Transcription and Translation Continued

> Additionally there is also an older Bio.Transcribe module, but

So, I'd like to now deprecate Bio.Transcribe for the next release.
Any objections/comments?
Peter
P.S. I'm also hoping that for the next release we can finish Bug 2381
as well, and then mark Bio.Translate as obsolete.
