BioMart 0.6 has been released. This release includes the following new
features:
DAS server
==========
BioMart can now be used as a 1.5 DAS annotation server.
The server can be configured using standard BioMart
configuration tools without requiring to do any additional programming.
MartView
========
MartView (http://www.biomart.org/biomart/martview)
comes with an improved layout and better
interactivity. The response times for the results panel
have been considerably improved for datasets with
large configuration, and the results come with
an 'unique rows' option. In addition to the
existing web service XML button, MartView now features
a Perl button which shows the query in Perl API format.
MartBuilder
===========
MartBuilder now allows you to execute, monitor and control your
transformation SQL remotely. Improved schema diagrams provide
more compact overviews, and improved dataset diagrams provide
a clearer picture of the dataset structure. In addition, the user
has more options for modifying created datasets and better information
about them in 'explain dataset' and 'explain table' dialogs.
All the code and documentation is freely available and can be downloaded
from http://www.biomart.org
