| 3 | +A simple Python implementation of BCF. The data model is described in `data.py`. |
| 4 | +Manipulation of BCF-XML is available via `bcfxml.py` and manipulation of BCF-API |
| 5 | +is available via `bcfapi.py`. |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +Currently supports BCF version 2.1. |

| 9 | +## bcfxml |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +The `bcfxml` module lets you interact with the BCF-XML standard. |
