Hi Jim, Peter, et.al.

  Not exactly sure which list is most appropriate for this, so I'll start
with both.

  Now that I've gotten past the hurtle of getting jabaws installed locally
(and we're moving forward with our DAS server to pass gene family data to
Jalview), I wanted to resume discussions we first had back in 2011
regarding adding phylogenetic services to Jalview.  At that time, Jabaws
was in mid-transition from 1.x to 2.0, so I wanted to make sure my group
re-engages on this a good picture of where things stand.

-silly question, but I wanted to verify that there hasn't yet been a
complete or partial integration of GBlocks, or any ML phylogenetic package
(e.g, RAxML) into jabaws and jalview?

-is the thinking still that GBlocks should be a web service implementing
the SequenceAnnotation interface?

-and the recommended way of adding a phylogenetic component is as a web
service?  Rather than being directly incorporated in the  "Calculate Tree"
set of NJ and Avg.Dist. tree builders in the Alignment Frame top menu?  I
imagine the answer is yes, if only to be able to execute cpu intensive
phylo algorithms on bigger server-side hw, but I still wanted to check.

-is there additional documentation, besides the old threads with Joni in my
group, for adding services to jabaws?

-you already have clients for tree rendering, with the ability to display
bootstraps.  I assume that would be client invoked to display results from
a "tree build as web service" run?  Or is there anything special about
clients that handle web service output vs. others?

Also, just curious if there is someone currently on the Jalview project
with exclusive or majority focus on Jabaws, now that Peter has moved on?

best,
-David
