Proposed Changes / Forthcoming Data:
------------------------------------
New data models have been devised and agreed to allow the incorporation of Mass Spec protein analysis data to be included in WormBase.
We have data from several researchers, some of which will be inlcuded in a forthcoming release of the database.


Model Changes:
------------------------------------
Changes to Interaction and Interaction_type to allow inclusion of predicted interaction data

-===================================================================================-


Quick installation guide for UNIX/Linux systems
-----------------------------------------------

1. Create a new directory to contain your copy of WormBase,
	e.g. /users/yourname/wormbase

2. Unpack and untar all of the database.*.tar.gz files into
	this directory. You will need approximately 2-3 Gb of disk space.

3. Obtain and install a suitable acedb binary for your system
	(available from www.acedb.org).

4. Use the acedb 'xace' program to open your database, e.g.
	type 'xace /users/yourname/wormbase' at the command prompt.

5. See the acedb website for more information about acedb and
	using xace.
