[DAS] Question on orientation on entry_points

[Lincoln Stein]

The orientation is a legacy field that no longer has much significance.  
Originally the entry points were intended for use to convey the genomic 
assembly, but this has been superseded by a features request with category of 
"components".

The mailing list has been moved.  To subscribe, you now need to visit this

Hope this helps,

Lincoln
