edit] What is a patch?

Linux-NTFS FAQ - LQWiki
A patch is a set of changes for a set of text files. Since we are only altering the NTFS code, it is inefficient to release all the kernel code every time we make a small change. We make our patches against official Linux kernel releases. Once you have unpacked the source, change directory into the source directory and use the command (replacing the path and patchname as necessary): This will modify the source code. There should be no rejects or failures. Next build the kernel as normal.

How do I submit a patch for Subversion?

subversion: Subversion FAQ
Once you've digested that, send a mail to the dev list with the word [PATCH] and a one-line description in the subject, and include the patch inline in your mail (unless your MUA munges it up totally). Then a committer will pick it up, apply it (making any formatting or content changes necessary), and check it in. The basic process looks like this: $ svn co http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk subversion $ cd subversion/www [ make changes to faq.html ] $ svn diff faq.

edit] How can I tell what version of BioPerl is installed?

FAQ - BioPerl
We have a universal version number for a release. This is set in the module Bio::Root::Version which is universally applied to every module which inherits from Bio::Root::RootI. To check the version, just use the following one liner: perl -MBio::Root::Version -e 'print $Bio::Root::Version::VERSION,"\n"' Now when we use version tuples that are not just decimal numbers, Perl converts these silently to Unicode representations.

edit] What does the future hold for running applications within BioPerl?

FAQ - BioPerl
We are trying to build a standard starting point for analysis application which will probably look like Bio::Tools::Run::AnalysisFactory which will allow the user to request which type of remote or local server they want to use to run their analyses. This will connect to the Pasteur's PISE server, the EBI's Novella server, as well as be aware of wrappers to run applications locally. Additionally we suggest investigating the BioPipe project, also known as bioperl-pipeline, at http://www.biopipe.
