-<p><strong>Whats new</strong> </p>\r
-<p>If you can read this then you'll already have seen some of the recent changes \r
- made to Jalview.<br>\r
- Jalview takes advantage of some of the more recent user interface developments \r
- in the Java programming language. For instance Jalview is now a multi windowed \r
- application, this keeps all your Jalview windows neatly together in one main \r
- application window. </p>\r
-<p>If you were familiar with the original Jalview, here is a list of important \r
- features you should know about the current development:</p>\r
-<ul>\r
- <li>Editing sequences is no longer the default when mouse clicking the alignment. \r
- Instead, mouse clicking on the alignment will create a "selection region" \r
- which may be full sequences or groups of residues.</li>\r
- <li>To edit a sequence, the "Shift" key must be held down</li>\r
- <li>To edit groups, either the "Alt" key or the "Control" \r
- key must be held down.</li>\r
- <li>Colours maybe applied to the background, ie the whole alignment, or to selected \r
- regions. If the tickbox "Apply colour to all groups" is ticked (this \r
- is the defualt), then the colour will be applied to all groups.</li>\r
- <li>Use the right mouse button (apple and click on the mac) to define a selected \r
- region on the alignment as a new group. </li>\r
- <li>Conservation is automatically updated whenever the alignment is edited</li>\r
- <li>There is no "quick draw" option</li>\r
- <li>Edits can be undone! (and redone)</li>\r
-</ul>\r

+ <strong>Jalview 2.11 - major and minor new features</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>Jalview 2.11 introduces support for loading VCF files, and new
+ filters and shading models for sequence features. Under the hood,
+ we've addressed many bugs, and also made some important changes in
+ the way the Jalview desktop is installed and launched.</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li><em>VCF Support</em>. Proteins and genomic contigs with
+ chromosomal location annotation (such as protein coding genes
+ retrieved from Ensembl) can be annotated with variants imported
+ from a local VCF file.</li>
+ <li><em>The Jalview Launcher and Update System</em><br />
+ Jalview's new installation model means you'll only need to
+ download and install Jalview once. After installation, Jalview
+ will automatically keep itself up to date. The launcher also sets
+ Jalview's memory automatically, so you'll never again have to
+ manually configure Java's memory settings.<br />We are grateful to
+ Install4J who provided us with a free license for their
+ installation system, and Jalview's over the air update system is
+ via Getdown.</li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>
+ The full list of bugs fixed in this release can be found in the <a
+ href="releases.html#Jalview.2.11">2.11 Release Notes</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <strong>Jalview and Java 11, 13, and onwards</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>Java 11 provides improved performance and better OS
+ integration, so we now recommend users select our Java 11 Jalview
+ distribution rather than the legacy Java 8 build.</p>
+ <em>Known Issues - update for 211 </em>
+ <ul>
+ <li>OSX: The 'Open File' dialog for Jalview's Groovy Console
+ appears with the title 'Save As', and attempting to select a file
+ to load yields a FileNotFound exception.</br>The workaround is to first
+ clear the 'Untitled' filename before selecting the file you wish
+ to load.
+ </li>
+ <li>OSX: Links don't open when clicked on or via the Sequence
+ or Alignment window popup menu.</li>
+ <li>OSX (Webstart): Jalview only displays old news feed items</li>
+ </ul>
