New Data:
---------
1) Large increase in Microarray_results due to recent publications.

New Fixes:
----------
1) Variation schema and data was out of sync for WS146, this has been partially 
   resolved for WS147 by grouping Description tags and info under a Pheynotype_remark 
   tag. This will be fully resolved for WS148 as the model is being rolled back while 
   curators get to work representing this data as Phenotype objects.

Known Problems:
--------------


Other Changes:
--------------

Proposed Changes / Forthcoming Data:
------------------------------------
1) New Expression_cluster class to replace Cluster to represent microarray result 
   clusters.

Forthcoming Model Changes:
--------------------------

1) Expression_cluster model.

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.
