SynBrowse newly released

Hello,

This is to announce that SynBrowse has been released.

SynBrowse (Synteny Browser) is a generic sequence comparison tool for
visualizing genome alignments both within and between species. It is intended
to help scientists study and analyze synteny, homologous genes and other
conserved elements between sequences. This software is useful in studying
genome duplication and evolution. It can also aid in identifying
uncharacterized genes, putative regulatory elements and novel structural
features of study species by comparing to a well annotated reference sequence,
thus enabling genome curators to refine and edit annotations of species that
have incomplete genome annotations.

SynBrowse is a GBrowse family software tool that runs on top of the open
source Bioperl modules Bio::Graphics and Bio::DB::GFF. SynBrowse also uses
some modules from GBrowse (e.g. the configuration system and some utility
functions). SynBrowse and GBrowse are highly compatible. If you are familar
with GBrowse, you should be easy to install and use SynBrowse.

This is the first time that SynBrowse goes to public. Your suggestions/
comments would help me improve the software rapidly.
