Genome Research <strong>and</strong> are beginning to use the current systems for projects there <strong>and</strong><br />
elsewhere. Though the software is incomplete in many ways, it is proven technology<br />
that in our h<strong>and</strong>s, at least, greatly reduces the work of creating laboratory informatics<br />
systems.<br />
While we welcome others to use our software, we believe there is greater value in<br />
the ideas. The total quantity of code is modest, comprising about 10,000 lines of<br />
Perl5. It would not be hard to reproduce the ideas in other contexts, <strong>and</strong> we<br />
encourage others to do so.<br />
