Hi Leandro,
I'll try to dig up some more recent slides for you. Meanwhile you can have a
first glimpse of what's coming. We have just released a website based on the
first 0.8 candidate.


http://dcc.icgc.org/

The interface that you see there is the first one of the number of GUIs that
we are developing for new BioMart. (Some of those will come from our
collaborators from the EBI) Some of the upcoming features (in non-particular
order are listed below)

1. Other GUI types, report pages and visualization tools
3. Parallel query processing for large datasets
4. Security
5. 'Virtual' marts.
(mart-compatible, non materialized views on the source schema)
6. Multi-dataset joins
7. New configuration tool

The new website is still very basic but We'll be adding more features soon
