These are java archives of an XML file containing alignments, trees and Jalview + display information. A data exchange standard is currently being developed, + so there is no stable schema yet, but Jalview web services will soon make use + of the same interchange format.

For those who want to know...
+ Jalview uses java classes automatically created using Castor. + Jalview 2.08 uses descriptor classes which significantly increase the speed + of marshalling / unmarshalling java objects into XML. Files created prior to + Jalview 2.08 can still be read in, but they will be saved in the new format.
