[BioSQL-l] Abstracts and Full Text on References

[Hilmar Lapp]

Sounds reasonable to me. Attribute association wouldn't be desirable  
I think (it would only bloat and overload the value field).

The only thing I'd be concerned about is accumulating stuff that is  
not supported by the language bindings ... i.e., bioperl doesn't  
support this, and so there isn't a way for bioperl-db to do so  
either. What are the plans for Biojava?

Are any Biopython or Bioruby folks on this list? Any comments from  
those fronts?
