-<p>Jalview Version 2.07 </p>\r
-<p><a href="features/seqfetch.html">Sequence Fetcher</a> has been added to quickly\r
- retrieve sequences with known ids from several databases.</p>\r
-<p><a href="features/seqfeatures.html">Sequence Features enhanced</a> to allow\r
- the user to display all features of a Uniprot file on the alignment and subsequently\r
- colour, hide or show overlapping features. </p>\r
-<p><a href="io/fileformats.html">Choose to omit /start-end from sequences when\r
- saving files.</a> This is important for saving files to be used by some programs\r
- which cannot read the original Jalview sequence output with the appended /start-end.</p>\r
-<p><a href="features/pdbviewer.html">PDB structure viewer enhanced</a>. Mapping\r
- between sequence and structure has been enhanced, colours on the alignment are\r
- reflected in the structure viewer.</p>\r
-<p><a href="http://www.jalview.org/examples/applets.html">Jalview Applet can read\r
- in feature files, PDB files be used as input to HTML form</a> See the website\r
- to find out the new parameters available for the Applet Version of Jalview.</p>\r
-<p> </p>\r
-<p><strong>Issues Resolved</strong></p>\r
-<p>Group Editing is possible with Control and mouse click. Alt key and mouse press\r
- does not work as this translates as the middle mouse button, which since 2.04\r
- is now used to scroll the alignment and change the font size. </p>\r
-<p>HTML export now writes groups and features which were previously missing.</p>\r

+ <strong>What's new ?</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Jalview 2.9 has been in development since December 2014. In addition
+ to a multitude of bug fixes and minor improvements (both small, and
+ rather big!), it also brings major new capabilities for codon-level
+ analysis of protein alignments and the retrieval and manipulation of
+ structural data.</p><p>For the full list of changes, see the
+ <a href="releases.html#Jalview.2.9">Jalview 2.9 Release Notes</a>.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <strong>Highlights in Jalview 2.9</strong>
+ <ul>
+ <li><strong>Visualisation, editing and analysis of
+ cDNA and Protein alignments</strong><br />A new <a
+ href="features/splitView.html">Split View</a> window allows linked
+ protein and nucleotide sequence alignments to be viewed, edited,
+ and analysed as one. <br />cDNA alignments can also be
+ reconstructed from protein alignments calculated by Jalview's web
+ services, and update in response to edits in the amino acid view.<br />To
+ start experimenting with cDNA/Protein analysis, jut drop a file
+ containing cDNA sequences which code for proteins in an existing
+ alignment, and Jalview will do the rest.</li>
+ <li><strong>Enhanced Integration of UCSF Chimera</strong> <br>Jalview
+ 2.9 provides full support for the use of Chimera to view 3D
+ structures linked to alignment views in the Jalview Desktop. We've
+ also included support for saving Chimera sessions in Jalview
+ project files.<br />Jalview and Chimera communicate using local
+ web server connections, which may cause firewall alerts on some
+ systems, but has the advantage of allowing bidirectional
+ communication. Communication between Jalview and Chimera is now
+ much more responsive, and selected regions in Chimera are now
+ shown as highlighted regions in the Jalview desktop.</li>
+ <li><strong>Interactive querying of the PDBe</strong><br />Jalview
+ users can now <a href="features/pdbsequencefetcher.html">browse</a> and <a href="features/viewingpdbs.html">retrieve 3D structure</a> data from the PDB
+ via the <a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbe/api/doc/search.html">PDBe
+ Search API</a> (<a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.1093%2Fnar%2Fgkt1180">Gutmanas
+ et al 2014</a>). Developed in collaboration with the PDBe group at
+ EMBL-EBI, the interface allows both structured and free-text
+ queries to be performed, and allows automatic selection of the
+ most relevant structures for an alignment acording to a variety of
+ criteria.</li>
+ <li><strong>Improved support for RNA visualisation</strong><br />Jalview
+ 2.9 integrates the latest version of the <a
+ href="features/varna.html">VARNA RNA Viewer</a>, and VARNA views
+ can also now be stored in Jalview projects. We've also dealt with
+ a number of lingering bugs in the VARNA/Jalview interface,
+ including the loss of pseudoknots when RNA secondary structure is
+ shown VARNA.</li>
+ <li><strong>Protein Secondary Structure predictions
+ with JPred4</strong><br />Jalview includes a number of new features for
+ working with secondary structure predictions from the JPred4
+ server. These include new <a href="menus/popupMenu.html#hideinserts">popup menu actions</a> to automatically hide insertions and highlight
+ mutations in an alignment with respect to a <a href="calculations/referenceseq.html">Reference
+ Sequence</a>. Jalview 2.9's new <a href="io/export.html#htmlexport">scrollable
+ SVG HTML export</a> was also developed specifically for the JPred4
+ server.</li>
+ </ul>
