Hi Andreas,

Ah yes, I committed the changes to QIIME but neglected PyNAST.  I've now
committed my PyNAST changes to SVN.  I don't believe this is a fork of
PyNAST or a change of upstream maintainer, just a change of location for
the source.  The changes apart from the watch file are minimal.

On Staden, the people who requested it are testing it right now.  The
packaging was rather less troublesome than I'd feared.  I did end up
re-packaging io_lib before realising it was already in Debian as
libstaden-read, but I'll clean that up and get rid of my extraneous
package before putting it into Bio-Linux.

At the moment, the staden package has an SVG icon that I quickly
created, as the Staden project has no icon whatsoever.  GUI applications
in Unity need an icon and accompanying .desktop file to identify them in
the Dash.  I normally put these in a helper package (ie.
bio-linux-staden) and I'll do that once the testers are happy so don't
get hung up about it being there - it will go away.

I've been tinkering with the -doc package to ensure that all the on-line
help menus in Staden appear properly.  I've not finished that yet so if
you start working on the packages you are liable to repeat what I have
done or do something incompatible or push a version with broken help, so
I'd ask you not to upload to Sid just yet.  But if you want to put in an
ITP that would be great.

Cheers,

TIM
