[Melissa Linkert]

Hi,

Today LOCI has released a new version of Bio-Formats.  This release contains
the following changes:

* Fixed bugs in many file format readers
* Fixed several bugs with swapping dimensions
* Added support for Olympus CellR/APL files
* Added support for MINC MRI files
* Added support for Aperio SVS files compressed with JPEG 2000 (see note
below)
* Added support for writing OME-XML files
* Added support for writing APNG files
* Added faster LZW codec
* Added drag and drop support to ImageJ shortcut window
* Re-integrated caching into the data browser plugin

You can download the latest release from
http://loci.wisc.edu/ome/formats-download.html.

As noted above, we have added support for Aperio SVS files that use JPEG
2000.  In order to open these files, you will need to install an additional
library (JMagick) - installation instructions are available at
http://loci.wisc.edu/ome/formats-jp2k.html.

If you have questions, concerns or comments about the software, please feel
free to contact us at bioformats at loci.wisc.edu.

Regards,
-Melissa
