No, Bio-Formats and OMERO do not currently support data from Ventana
systems.  We'd certainly be happy to investigate supporting that format,
though, if you are interested in sending one or more slides that can be
used for testing.

Smaller slides can be uploaded as Zip files to:

http://qa.openmicroscopy.org.uk/qa/upload/

If you are interested in sending larger slides (> 100 MB or so), please
let me know and I will send alternate upload instructions.

Regards,
-Melissa
