The last Pise distribution contains important bug fixes:

  - paragraphs embedded into a paragraph are now correctly handled,
  - there were problems in XML parsing of labels containing "", 
  - Web forms' title now include the description and the authors,
  - some programs' definition had errors.

There has been some improvments:

  - bibliographic references are included and displayed in the Web form when available
  - the installation procedure is now almost automatic; there is just one file to edit
  - required Perl modules and programs are all checked; nice syntax is now automatically
  checked
  - some administration scripts have been added
  - database searches programs (like blast, fasta, ...) now have a configuration 
  file that lists the locally available databases.
