You wouldn't believe the lack of anarchy among these people. They sound young, but there is a lot of personal discipline in that room.
The best product is the one that is tested and evolves with that experience - and this is working code, used in anger by the human genome project.

They would not say that they are the creme de la creme - they would say that they are actually coding, and that they are willing to share. Unfortunately, many of us bioinformaticians are stuck working for some company that looks for competitive advantage and won't allow sharing of pre-competitive code. These guys are not so un-encumbered (sometimes at personal cost - how much are you making?) and they choose to contribute to this cause.
As to being 'hype', would you prefer I3C?
Real artists ship.

perl/xml Matt Sargeant was contracted to write one for the animal people a while ago, but was too busy. Where is the replacement?
