Dear Consortium Members and Affiliates,
Time to announce our software updates again! This month we added seventeen applications to our MacIntel distribution. The installation will make the branch fairly complete, and comparable with Linux and PPC branches. We also purchased a full set of Intel compilers and will use them to further optimize Macintosh software.
Additional applications for NMR, X-ray crystallography, and EM were also installed. Please provide feedback (www.sbgrid.org/bugs) if there are any problems. While we do preliminary testing, we rely on all consortium members to provide feedback and make the distribution better. If needed, we will run emergency updates after the scheduled upgrade to rapidly fine-tune the installation. Software upgrades and updates are scheduled for Friday night, October 6th, and you should be able to access them at your site on Saturday, October 7.
Kind regards,
Piotr Sliz
