Hi Marc,

Thank you very much for the quick response and detailed explanation! We used
the package last year. The paper is almost ready to be submitted, so we will
most likely keep the annotation as it is.

According to http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/downloads.html#c_elegans, it was
updated to ce6 on May 2008.

Thanks again for your help!

Kind regards,

Julie
