[Genome] Yeast genome assembly

[Kayla Smith]

Johanne,

We don't currently have plans to update the existing yeast assembly on 
our website.  We may consider updating it in the future if our 
scientific advisory board decides that it is a priority.  You might want 
to consider running a mirror of our Genome Browser and adding the latest 
yeast assembly to that.  Details for how to set up a mirror are here:

Thanks,

Kayla Smith
