Release Milestones for WS240
As we want to do "themed" releases, are there any plans for WS240? Especially since any "themed" activity needs to happen until the upload date (as in: a few weeks).

Kevin sent Caltech an email about attributions for gene records on 8/9. Do we need to discuss this further?

WormMine
Raymond, JD, Kevin, Todd, Paul S
Glad that people are interested and want to add more things, but not ready to yet. Will make a table about future data classes. Currently expanding existing classes. Upgraded data loader, can add data that is a tag, instead of just data in a tag.
Does it handle acedb hashes? If it can be reached through xpath, it can be handled.
Will next release allow download of Sequence parts? From the GFF. Not resolved yet, it's a deep Intermine issue, talking to InterMine to diagnose. Need this before turning off WormMart.
WormMart data being so old, should we discourage people from using it? It's better to encourage other ways of getting the data.
WormMart still needed for at least another 6 months, be more transparent about what data is still needed there. Compare this to JD's list of data to be added. Some data in Ensembl.
