Hi Yaroslav,
thanks for the upload and the information. This will enable us
uploading python-biom-format at least to experimental. It would be
really great if you could also drop me a note once version >= 0.17 would
be moved to unstable to let this package also migrate to unstable.
Have a nice weekend
Andreas.
