``At BOSC speakers representing the various `Bio' projects discussed developments in open source code. Two of the most interesting developments are BioCorba, a middleware interface that can be used to get applications in languages such as BioPerl and BioJava to talk to one another, and BioXML, which can assist researchers in their efforts to transmit genomic information over the Web. Jason Stajich, a programming analyst at the Center for Human Genetics at Duke University Medical Center, said that his BioCorba program allows researchers to expand the limits of individual programming languages...On another front, Brad Marshall of the Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project is developing BioXML. This extension to XML is designed to standardize codes for biological data that researchers are likely to transmit over the Internet.''
