Hi everyone! I just wanted to drop a note that we=92re having a discussion =
about Bioperl policies regarding contributions that involve AI-generated co=
de, tests, or documentation.  Any feedback is greatly appreciated, as this =
will help us clarify expectations for potential future contributions.

https://github.com/bioperl/bioperl-live/issues/407

This is also in context with ongoing discussions across open-source project=
s, including the Biopython community:

Best
