I think it would be real nice to bring Sean's and Serge's code together
into a start of something real nice.  It will be very stimulating to
actually have some code that is doing something usefull.  

I suggest to bring all the files together in a single directory on one of 
the cvs servers (genephp on sourceforge or biophp on the bioinformatics
one, I don't care which one, sourceforge is a very reliable server,
biophp is the catchier name).  Having them all in one directory is simply 
a good initial organization and a simple 'cvs update' will give you a
nice library of (hopefully) working biophp scripts.  Splitting them out
by author is not a good idea, because it will not be the organization in
which the files will work together.  Simply put, let's immediately put
that code to work and let's structure everything such that it is easy to use.  

Don't be scared about others doing stuff to your files, cvs is extremely
nice (once you get used to it), and you will be able to retrieve every
version of the file that ever existed. cvs will also take care of people
working on the same file at the same time.   

I am really looking forward to seeing this all move to something nice.
Once Serge has made the easier constructor for his seqdb class (that does 
not need index files) I am going to use the code in the phplabware
project and help write more parsers.


Just my 2 cents..
