starting to get emails from people getting confused about the fact that some species are in both WormBase central and ParaSite, sometimes with different versions. \r\n\r\nThis is never going to be perfect, because we have some parasites in our core set (B. malayi, O. volvulus, S. ratti) that will need to have presence in both www.wormbase.org and parasite.wormbase.org. for these, wormbase.org will be the authoritative  home, and ParaSite will mirror the data, and the FTP site will symlink to the official WormBase versions of the genome, GFF etc. \r\n\r\nFor the others though, I propose:\r\n\r\n- closing down the genome browsers (redundant effort)\r\n- From WS249 onwards, not distributing data for these species on the main WormBase FTP site, but create READMEs with a forwarding link to the ParaSite FTP site (open to other suggestions on this)\r\n- Create a \"ParaSite\" item on the species drop-down with the ParaSite species, which link to the ParaSite pages for each species.

the personal preferences of @epaule to one side for a moment, presenting those three species as part of WormBase is very much a strategic decision. In setting up ParaSite, we were clear on what its mission is w.r.t. WormBase central: WormBase is for C. elegans, its close relatives, and selected other nematodes that have (a) a research community (i.e. a growing body of literature) and also (ideally) (b) a high quality reference genome for which that community cares about continued improvement of the sequence and annotation. ParaSite, on the other hand, is intended as a comprehensive view of all available helminth genomes, the majority of which will one-off \"survey\" genome projects, whereby the authors sequence, publish, and move on.  \r\n\r\nB. malayi, O. volvulus and S. ratti fit into that first category, and (according to the strategy above) should be in WormBase. But because we want ParaSite to be comprehensive, we are also obliged to represent them there too. This is the slightly messy part. Where possible, we link back to entity pages at WormBase central for these species. Also, the FTP data for these data comprises symlinks to WormBase central. \r\n  "}}
