Dear Consortium Members and Affiliates

Software updates will be sent to your site on Friday night, April 27. This month, you will receive several updates and a couple of new programs. Immediately after receiving the software updates this Friday, you will be using the newest installed versions. If there are any problems, please report them (http://www.sbgrid.org/bugs). You can always switch to an older version of the application while we work on your request—just use ‘sbgrid -n versions’ for more information. Many of these monthly updates and additions are prompted by member requests, so please do not hesitate to request new applications (http://www.sbgrid.org/req).

Please continue reading for details on the software updates, information on a lower member-only price for the SBGrid recommended workstation, how to submit your choice for the Best Application Challenge, and the rest of the news for the month.

Regards,

Piotr Sliz, Ph.D.
Group Leader
