Complaints:

* No tests. That should be fixed, especially if you plan on your work
being verifiable multiple months into the future. I believe biopython
has a good test suite that you can go look at (and if not, just use
python-requests' tests as a gold standard).

* AGPL. No thanks.. too many problems with that license.

* You have a hash-bang in setup.py, but nobody ever marks their
setup.py as executable so I'm not sure why you would do that..

* easy_install is usually easy_install and not easy-install

* There's a bunch of lowercase class names.. should you want to be
really truly pedantic, then use pylint or pyflakes. Ultimate pedantry
achieved.
