Version 2.1.15 - (July 2007) This is primarily a bugfix release. The most significant changes are:

An error was made in the two previous distributions: an incorrect jar file was included in the windows installer, so some bugfixes were not correctly included. In particular, an issue with how the GO classes were read in is now consistent between all distributions. Thanks to Oliver Homann for bringing this to our attention.
There were problems with some command line arguments not being recognized correctly.

April 2007

We fixed two bugs that can affect the analysis. First, it was possible for some implicit GO term associations to be missed. This primarily affected large GO categories that most users tend to remove from consideration, but may affect analyses. Second, there was a problem using input scores containing negative values and the "best score" option to handle multiple occurrence of genes on array designs. Users who always use positive values would not be affected by this problem. We thank the users who identified reported these problems!

The command line interface has been largely rewritten and should be more robust, easier to use, and easier to understand.

A variety of cosmetic and GUI bugs have been fixed, especially affecting Linux and Macintosh users.
