AcePerl Released

Hi,

Just a quick note to say that AcePerl version 1.86 is now released.  You can 
find it at http://stein.cshl.org/AcePerl, or on CPAN.  No new features, but 
the big news is that the Ace::Sequence sequence feature fetcher is working 
again.  You must use acedb 1.9r in order to use the sequence features.

A public access WormBase ACEDB server is now available:

	host: aceserver.cshl.org
	port: 2005

I thank everyone for their patience in waiting for this release.

Lincoln

Re: Inappropriate messages being sent to mailing list recipients

In response to the dramatic upsurge of spam being sent to the wormbase and 
wormbase-help mailing lists, I have activated a number of features designed 
to filter out spam:

	- all non-western character sets are now forbidden
	- the internet relay blacklist is now consulted to block known
		open relays
	- the Razor distributed anti-spam network is now being consulted

If anyone notices legitimate e-mail being blocked, please let me know 
imediately.
