Packaging of BioJava

BioJava is a long lasting initiative to get new algorithms for Bioinformatics developed with the Java language. It is less a workhorse for the typical Bioinformatician than ?BioPerl is but really a tool for development ... admittedly, you can indeed solve many problems with it.

BioJava comes with many subpackages, which are all directly accessible on their [http://biojava.org/wiki/CVS_to_SVN_Migration subversion tree], see

The following subpackages are available, comments are welcome for the priorisation of the Debianisation process.

The current effort to bring BioJava to Debian is focused on BioJava-Live and the libraries it needs.

Issues

A first submission was rejected in 2007. Upstream has since added a reference to the LGPL license to a file that had previously "all rights reserved", and now everything should be in order - license-wise.
