[Bio-Linux] newest sequin version

[Andreas Leimbach]

Hi Tim,

thanks for following up. Actually, I don't even know where you can find 
the source code. I only see binaries.
But as you said it's weird, if I browse the FTP site 
(ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/sequin/) with Firefox I can see the binaries are 
last modified "12.02.2012". But if I klick on "CURRENT" 
(ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/sequin/CURRENT/) the files are from 
"30.01.2014". If I download either, it's the same file, version 13.05 ...
Sadly, there are many other places NCBI's FTP server is confusing.

We're used to Sequin here, but you're right I wanted to switch to EMBL 
for a long time, maybe now I'll have enough motivation.

Best,
Andreas
