There are some new features in the DAS Registry one of them is a
deletion/archiving of completely non-valid servers i.e. no green or
yellow lights. Most servers that are scheduled for deletion have no
response but some are still responding but without valid responses. An
email should have been sent by the registry a long time ago if this is
the case and you had alerts set to true. Servers set for deletion are
shown with a red background if they have been completely invalid for
30 days or more and show the number of days left before being deleted
(-numbers for those that have been invalid for more than 60 days). On
Thursday this week all sources in this state will be removed unless
you contact the registry by emailing [email protected] or me.
Other new features are:
added new 1.6 spec way of getting single source
http://www.dasregistry.org/das/DS_blah
* added ability for programmatic validation of das sources via www.dasregistry.org/validate/
e.g. http://www.dasregistry/validate/?url=http://das.sanger.ac.uk/das/otter_das/&testcode=22:19173435,19372173
minumum parameters needed are the url and the testcode
* archive servers now implemented - so total number of servers will be
reduced
