Sorry, it was my fault.

I supposed that 0.7 series are not yet stable and released for developers,
but I should make an announcement on the list.

0.7 includes many improvements
- loading time made 30x faster than 0.6 (using autoload instead of require)
- a new bioruby shell (command line interface for BioRuby)
- many documents have been converted to RDoc format
- many unit tests have been added
- many fixes

However, there are some backward incompatibilities, for example,
BioRuby 0.7 may not run with Ruby 1.6.*.

See doc/Changes-0.7.rd file for more details.
