Biojava 1.6 has been released and is available from http:// biojava.org/wiki/BioJava:Download

Biojava 1.6 offers more functionality and stability over the previous official releases. BioJava now depends on Java 1.5+. We highly recommend you to upgrade as soon as possible.

In detail, the phylo package org.biojavax.bio.phylo was improved and expanded by our GSOC'07 student Boh-Yun Lee. It now contains fully- functional Nexus and Phylip parsers, and tools for calculating UPGMA and Neighbour Joining, Jukes-Kantor and Kimura Two Parameter, and MP. It uses JGraphT to represent parsed trees.

The PDB file parser was improved by Jules Jacobsen for better dealing with PDB header records. Andreas Draeger provided several patches for improving the Genetic Algorithm modules. Additionally this release contains numerous bug fixes and documentation improvements.

Thanks to the entire biojava community for making this possible!

Happy Biojava-ing,

Andreas
