Generally very positive - much needed overdue updates. My comments are mainly stylistic.

Please don't recommend using svn here. If you want to avoid needing git, we can just download a tar-ball or zip file from GitHub using e.g.
wget https://github.com/biopython/biopython/archive/biopython-172.zip
unzip biopython-172.zip
Or,
wget https://github.com/biopython/biopython/archive/biopython-172.tar.gz
tar -zxvf biopython-172.tar.gz
Also this lets us recommend getting the tests to match the version of Biopython installed, which should prevent test failures from a version mis-match (although that would be rare with BioSQL as this code is fairly static these days).

Again, avoid recommending the legacy tool svn here - we want any potential contributors to use git so:
git clone https://github.com/biosql/biosql.git
cd biosqlOr, for a simple snapshot:
wget https://github.com/biosql/biosql/archive/master.tar.gz
tar -zxvf master.tar.gz
cd biosql-master/

Again, please avoid svn export and use git or a plain download from GitHub.
