[ensembl-dev] EnsEMBL SOAP / Rest services?

[Jared Nedzel]

Jan:

I'm not familiar with catalyst or sloth.  This was developed some time back,
using Java, Hibernate, and Axis.

We don't have the code on a public site, but if you send me a bit about your
institution, I'll check with my manager and see if we can get the code.
