Does anyone know about any reliable freeware for organizing and
analyzing plasmid sequence data?
Thanks!

old, but still functional, even on Windows 7
Whats the specific nature of the project? I got the older version of
vectorNTI and I wanted to learn how to use it. The lack of a problems
and/or exercises has hindered me.
Is there anything you can outsource to DIYbio members, etc?
Thanks
Unfortunately, setting all this up, working on it full-time and
recruiting programmers has cost me quite a bit of money, so it's cheap
but not free. The goal is to make the first decent, modern, affordable
software for molecular biologists and by using a plug-in model, anyone
with Java know-how can contribute. (The documentation and SDK are
still being developed)
I just launched the first version last month, so many capabilities are
still in the works (such as alignments, database support, project
organization, and automated in silico cloning) but it already saves a
lot of time and solves a lot of project planning headaches. In
particular, I'm proud of the very intuitive search capabilities,
sequence statistics, and very extensive restriction enzyme data. I
also wanted to make it extremely easy to use, so that no one needs to
waste time with manuals or training, and you can better spend time
with students teaching science instead of how to use software.
I can understand that this might be construed as a sales-pitch, but I
can only assure you that my heart is in the right place. I'm a
biologist with a passion for genetics who simply got tired of all the
crap we have to work with on the software front. The DIYbio community
is teaming with great ideas on how to improve, and I would love to
hear your opinions and ideas for the solution I'm building.
You can easily download it for PC or Mac (with a Linux beta coming
soon) from the website: http://www.crimsonbase.com/download
Best,

Can you comment on developing this as an Eclipse SDK/plugin? Or is
it?

QuickGene is developed in SWT, which is what Eclipse is based on, so
development is somewhat similar. However, it has its own easy-to-use
plug-in system rather than the Eclipse RCP approach. Internally,
QuickGene is already pretty massive, so it's still going to take a bit
of time to put together a clear, robust SDK with documentation. If
there's some genuine interest on getting to work on a plug-in, I could
put some of the currently developing features on ice to kick that into
gear and lay out something usable to get started on. Of course, that
would be absolutely great!
