-<p><strong>What's new ?</strong></p>
-<p>Jalview 2.5.1 is a bug fix release for the 2.5 version of
-Jalview. See the <a href="releases.html#Jalview2.5.1">release
-history</a> for the bugs that this release resolves.</p>
-<p><strong>Highlights in Jalview Version 2.5</strong></p>
-<ul>
- Linked viewing of nucleic acid sequences and structures<br/>
- Automatic Scrolling option in View menu to display the
- currently highlighted region of an alignment.<br/>
- Order an alignment by sequence length, or using the average score or total feature count for each sequence.<br/>
- Shading features by score or associated description<br/>
- Subdivide alignment and groups based on identity of selected subsequence (Make Groups from Selection).<br/>
- New hide/show options including Shift+Control+H to hide everything but the currently selected region.<br/>
-</ul>
-<em>Jalview Desktop:</em>
-<ul>
- Fetch DB References capabilities and UI expanded to support
- retrieval from DAS sequence sources<br/>
- Enable or disable non-positional feature and database
- references in sequence ID tooltip from View menu in application.<br/>
- Group-associated consensus, sequence logos and conservation
- plots<br/>
- Symbol distributions for each column can be exported and
- visualized as sequence logos<br/>
- Jalview Java Console<br/>
- New webservice for submitting sequences and IDs to <a
- href="webServices/index.html#envision2">Envision2</a> Workflows<br/>
- Improved VAMSAS synchronization and sharing of selections.<br/>
-</ul>
-<em>JalviewLite:</em>
-<ul>
- Middle button resizes annotation row height<br/>
- New Parameters - including default tree display settings.<br/>
- Non-positional features displayed in ID tooltip<br/>
-</ul>
-<p><strong>Issues Resolved (a select list)</strong></p>
-<ul>
- <ul>
- Source field in GFF files parsed as feature source rather
- than description<br/>
- Non-positional features are now included in sequence feature
- and gff files (controlled via non-positional feature visibility in
- tooltip).<br/>
- URL links generated for all feature links (bugfix)<br/>
- Codons containing ambiguous nucleotides translated as 'X' in
- peptide product<br/>
- Match case switch in find dialog box works for both sequence
- ID and sequence string and query strings do not have to be in upper
- case to match case-insensitively.<br/>
- Jalview Annotation File generation/parsing consistent with
- documentation (e.g. Stockholm annotation can be exported and
- re-imported)<br/>
- Find incrementally searches ID string matches as well as
- subsequence matches, and correctly reports total number of both.<br/>
- </ul>
- <em>Desktop Issues</em>
- <ul>
- Better handling of exceptions during sequence retrieval<br/>
- PDB files retrieved from URLs are cached properly<br/>
- Sequence description lines properly shared via VAMSAS<br/>
- Sequence fetcher fetches multiple records for all data
- sources<br/>
- Ensured that command line das feature retrieval completes
- before alignment figures are generated.<br/>
- Reduced time taken when opening file browser for first time.<br/>
- User defined group colours properly recovered from Jalview projects.<br/>
- </ul>
-</ul>

+ <strong>What's new in Jalview 2.10.1 ?</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Jalview 2.10.1 was released on 29th November 2016. Full details are
+ in the <a href="releases.html#Jalview.2.10.1">Jalview 2.10.1
+ Release Notes</a>, but the highlights are below. This is also the
+ first release to include contributions from Kira Mourão, who
+ joined Jalview's core development team in October 2016.
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li><strong>More memory efficient</strong><br />We've slimmed
+ down the consensus analysis data structures used by Jalview so
+ even wider alignments can be worked with.</li>
+ <li><strong>Select highlighted region</strong><br />Press 'B'
+ or use the new menu option in the alignment window's Select menu
+ to mark columns containing highlighted regions generated from
+ structure selections, mouse-overs, or resulting from a Find
+ operation.</li>
+ <li><strong>New custom link mechanism for opening URLs
+ for database cross references.</strong><br /> If you have customised URL
+ links in your Jalview preferences, then you may already have seen
+ the <a href="#warning"> warning dialog (see below).</a></li>
+ <li><strong>New command line export option for BioJS
+ MSAviewer</strong><br />A number of small bugs with the HTML export
+ functions from the Jalview desktop were also fixed.</li>
+ <li><strong>Small but significant changes to the
+ physicochemical properties and consensus calculations</strong><br />Threonine
+ is no longer considered a non-hydrophobic residue in the protein
+ conservation calculation, and minor bugs addressed in PID and
+ consensus colouring.</li>
+ <li><strong>Correct display of disulphide bond
+ features</strong><br /> In linked structure views, Jalview would
+ highlight all residues between in addition to the two linked
+ cysteines. The 'select columns by feature' function in the feature
+ settings would also select all intermediate columns.
+ </ul>
-<p> </p>
-<p>See the <a href="releases.html">Release History</a> page for
-details of all new features and resolved issues.</p>
+ <p>
+ <strong><a name="warning">Warning dialog about updating
+ your configured URL links</a></strong><br /> In the desktop prior to Jalview
+ 2.10.1, the only way to configure custom links for a particular
+ database cross-reference for a sequence was to give it a name that <em>exactly</em>
+ matched the database source, and a regular expression for filtering
+ out any spurious matches generated when the custom linked was tested
+ against the Sequence's ID string. Since the introduction of the
+ $DB_ACCESSION$ token, however, $SEQUENCE_ID$ will not be used for
+ database cross-reference accession strings, and if you have custom
+ links configured, Jalview will raise a warning message so let you
+ know that you may need to update your links to use $DB_ACCESSION$.
