I remember that we talked about this in Southport.  Because you admitted
that you are using it yourself: Could you prepare a hmmer2 package that
fits your needs and let me check?  I'm not sure how important it would
be to rename the current hmmer (== hmmer-latest) to hmmer3 (from my
perception it could remain unversioned, but you can decide on a way more
educated basis as an active user).

Kind regards

       Andreas.

PS: Thanks for your MoM advertising to Maarten.  I would also MoM-mentoring
    about the hmmer-split if there is somebody who is actually willing to
    do the work.  Currently other things are higher on my agenda than doing
    this myself completely.
