Indeed. I had a couple of students who came up with STRAP
by themselves to get alignments with structures together,
much like Cn3D ... or Jalview.

Since he is upstream to STRAP, this is how it should be. All
my weekends and evengings are already booked for the near future,
and I admit that because of my ambition to get Taverna in, I would
now rather want to see some success story with Jalview first.

This seems to work again :)

Indeed, what looks like a weekend activity easily becomes multiple
weekends and then refuses to work.

It would be excellent for Christoph and Jim to meet up for synchronising
their Java versions and/or the one or other idea of theirs. All the UK bio
groups are excellent with their ties to the OSG1
initiatives and I could imaging this to help us and Christoph to reduce some
efforts. @Christoph, there is a hackathon organised just before BOSC
is happening in Vienna this year (no fees). Since Berlin-Vienna is basically
no distance, maybe you could all meet up at this opportunity?
