See MetaBase, the database of biological databases.
The SVN repository is http://www.bioinformatics.org/websvn/listing.php?repname=mbcb
For instructions, see: http://wiki.bioinformatics.org/Subversion
Purpose: To provide a software repository for working with and updating the MetaBase project. For more information see http://MetaDatabase.Org Goals: To allow users all over the world to contribute to and maintain the content of MetaBase programatically. Secondarily we aim to provide educational examples of working with MediaWiki through the API. Special requirements: CVS / SVN / Package release features :-D I've been developing MetaBase for a while, and I want a permanent place for the codebase that has built up to minimize the barriers for project participation.
