-Philosophy for 1.7.x:
-
-In order to reduce the number of dependencies, we are actively encouraging
-developers wanting to submit new code with additional dependencies to release
-code in a separate repository and release it on CPAN. We can help assist in this
-process and can also place this under the 'bioperl' Github organization (and
-similarly under the bioperl umbrella account in CPAN), though this is not
-required.
-
-We will also be moving additonal code to other repositories and will release
-them separately on CPAN. Modules considered obsolute (relies on a dead web
-service or utilizes strict dependencies that are also considered obsolete) will
-be removed.
