Keith,

You can get a stable development version (I guess you'd call this a
beta-release) to try out from:
ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/acedb/Sanger-release.2000_07_14.tar.gz
have you tried this ?

Yup, I'm afraid that's true, we have been really busy getting acedb 4_8 in to
shape to be a formal public release (it will be known as acedb 4_9).
We are planning some big improvements to the web site and now have an extra body
to help us make those improvements (John Sturdy, jcgs at sanger.ac.uk).
I collected a wish-list for improvements to the web site from the acedb 2000
conference in Vancouver, but if anyone has any suggestions they'd like to make
then please email me and John.
cheers Ed
