[Biopython] Biopython 1.62 beta release

[Peter Cock]

Dear Biopythoneers,

A beta release for Biopython 1.54 is now available for download
and testing - noted that I haven't done a fully detailed release
announcement, we'll leave that for the official release:

Source distributions and Windows installers are available from
the downloads page on the Biopython website.

We are interested in getting feedback on the beta release as
a whole, but especially on Python 3.3 support and the change
to sub-feature handling in EMBL/GenBank parsing for joins.

which includes 11 new people:
