<h4>Getting JABAWS</h4>\r
<p>\r
JABAWS consists of a server and client, but unlike most bioinformatics web service systems, you can download and \r
Virtual Appliance. It requires no configuration and is simple to install. If you want to install JABAWS for your \r
lab or institution then download the JABAWS Web Application aRchive. It is slightly more complicated to configure \r
but is very straightforward too. Finally, if you want to script against any version of JABAWS or are interested \r
- in writing your own client, the JABAWS command line client is what you need. </p>\r

<h3><a name="wjaba" id="wjaba"></a>JABAWS Benefits</h3>\r
<ul>\r
-<li>Can be deployed on most operating systems, as a VMware or other compatible Virtual Appliance or a Tomcat Java Web Application.</li>\r
-<li>Comes complete with sources and binaries for all the bioinformatics programs that it runs.</li>\r
-<li>Can operate as a stand alone server or one that submits jobs to a cluster <em>via</em> <a href="http://www.drmaa.org/">DRMAA</a>.</li>\r
-<li>Easy to access from <a href="http://www.jalview.org">Jalview</a> using its graphical client, or using the JABAWS command line client.</li>\r
-<li>Clients can submit jobs to any JABAWS servers that you might want to access, such as the one running on your local computer, \r
- your lab's server, or the publicly available services at the <a href="http://www.compbio.dundee.ac.uk/">University of Dundee</a>.</li>\r
-<li>Local or intranet installation eliminates any security concerns you might have about sending sensitive data over the internet.</li>\r

<h3><a name="jaba2"></a>What is new in JABAWS 2.0.1? </h3>\r
-<p>Comparing to previous version of JABAWS 2.0.1 offers a greater number of diverse web services, Amazon EC 2 integration and improved easy of use. It contains </p>\r
-<ul><li>updates for all multiple sequence alignment services</li>\r
- <li>four new protein disorder prediction services</li>\r
- <li>Clustal Omega multiple sequence alignment web service</li>\r
- <li>amino acid conservation service</li>\r
- <li>web services execution statistics visialization </li>\r
- <li>web services status check from a web page</li>\r
- <li>VirtualBox support was dropped in favour of VMware</li>\r
- <li>new WAR package for Mac users</li>\r
- <li>Amazon Machine Image (AMI) distributive to enable users to use JABAWS on the EC2 cloud</li>\r
- <li>Improved web services client API</li>\r
- <li>Simplified WAR package installation</li>\r
+<p>This release of JABAWS 2.0.1 is mostly bug fixing release. This is a list of bugs which have been fixed in JABAWS 2.0.1:</p>\r
+<ul>\r
+ <li>Disembl returned swapped strings for HOTLOOPS and REM465</li>\r
+ <li>Jronn failed to process jobs with more than 3 sequences</li>\r
+ <li>JABAWS could not deal with FASTA records with the '>' symbols in the record identificator</li>\r
+ <li>Change of parameter description for AAcon: parameters have been replaced with options for calculation methods. This allows a user to get several AAcon's conservation scores \r
+ in one call</li>\r
+ <li>JABAW never cleaned up job directories. Now JABAWS deletes the job directory if it exist longer then a period defined in Engine.properties</li>\r
+ <li>Default web security has been incompatible with Tomcat 7.0.31 and newer</li>\r

<h3><a name="jabaclient" id="jabaclient"></a>What is JABAWS client?</h3>\r
-\r
<p>\r
A JABAWS client is a program that lets you run the bioinformatics methods for which a JABAWS server provides web \r
services. The most basic JABAWS client is a command line Java application which can call any of the JABAWS web \r
provides a graphical JABAWS client. This client has the same functionality as the command line client, but \r
instead allows JABAWS services to be accessed in a more user-friendly manner, through a graphical user interface.\r

<h3><a name="jalviewsup"></a>JABAWS versions compatibility and Jalview support </h3>\r
<p>\r
JABAWS version 2.0.1 is fully backward compatible with JABAWS v1.0 and v2.0. That means that all JABAWS v1.0 and \r
v2.0 clients should be able to use JABAWS 2.0.1 instead. To benefit of new web services introduced in JABAWS 2.0 \r
the clients compitible with JABAWS v1.0 have to be updated.\r
</p>\r
+\r
<h3><a name="cmdclient" id="cmdclient"></a>Programmatic access to JABAWS </h3>\r
<p>\r
JABA Web Services are WS-I basic profile compliant, which means they can be accessed using any programming language \r
is the Java tool for creating web service bindings; but in addition, offers some additional methods which simplify \r
working with JABAWS. For more information please refer to the <a href="dm_javadoc/index.html">data model javadoc</a>.\r
