Description
Would like to port the Chimera 1 BLAST web service to Hydra.
It uses SOAP to talk to the RBVI Opal server. The Python SOAP library used is called ZSI and does not work with Python 3 and was last released in 2007. There are a few Python 3 SOAP libraries but no consensus on the web about which to use.

Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Conrad reports he did not find a good Python SOAP option. He contacted the Opal developers and they said they don't know how to proceed to Python 3 and they will think about it.
In the mean time it would not be hard make a server cgi script to run the BLAST job. Sam Hertig will look into this.
