The Biopython Project (http://www.biopython.org/) is a new open collaborative effort to develop freely available Python libraries and applications that address the needs of current and future work in bioinformatics, including sequence analysis, structural biology, pathways, expression data, etc. When available, the source code will be released as open source (http://www.biopython.org/License.shtml) under terms similar to Python. This is a Call for Participation for interested people to join the project. We are hoping to attract people from a diverse set of backgrounds to help with code development, site maintenance, scientific discussion, etc. This project is open to everyone. If you're interested, please visit the web page, join the biopython mailing list, and let us know what you think!
