[BioRuby] Feedback requested on OBO module

[Naohisa GOTO]

Hi,

In this mailing list, attachment files are normally dropped.

To continue discussions, if the code is short, desribe it in the
message body. If it isn't short, put your code on your web site or
on a code repository (for example http://gist.github.com/ ) and
post only the URL.

Thanks.
