New Data:
---------

A)The Genome sequence has changed for WS142:
    1)T08D2 has been inverted to resolve a missasenbly.
    2)C14B9 has a single deletion following a sequence error correction.

B)Some of the RNAi datasets (including the latest set from Tony Hyman) have multiple 
  RNAi mappings to indicate primary and secondary placing on the genome. This allows 
  WormBase to better indicate RNAi experiments which interfere with multipletargets in 
  the genome.

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.
