[Biopython] [GSoC] Welcome aboard, GSoC 2014 students!

[Manlio Calvi]

Hello Evan,

Maybe I'm not the most qualified here to welcome you as my work at the
moment is the one of "human buildslave" :P (just to be clear I choose
to be that), I don't have the coding experience of the others here but
I want welcome you anyway, even with my limited experience I see this
as a good community to learn and work with.

Welcome again,
Manlio
