During the past two months of testing, a number of beta testers helped point out many areas in which QuickGene could be improved, and we've been happy to comply! We're very excited about how it's developing and now the newest beta version, 0.2, is available to download.

Most notably, the licensing problem has been fixed and this will be the last version you ever need to download as QuickGene now supports fully automatic updates. This means that all repairs and improvements we make will be downloaded and implemented by QuickGene itself on a weekly basis. That's one less thing for you to think about and constitutes the biggest change in the new version.

We've made many other changes as well, particularly in speed and stability. The complement strand has been added and translations are soon to follow. GenBank files are now recognized and all features therein will be recognized and loaded.

Registered users can login (using the e-mail address with which you registered) to gain access to the download page where the most current versions are available. If you're not currently registered, we encourage you to do so, as we're welcoming everyone and are eager to hear your suggestions for improvement!

We're actively working on adding the features that have been requested so far, so if you have any suggestions or additions, please don't hesitate to e-mail us or to use the feedback buttons in QuickGene. Thanks again for all the great feedback so far!
