I am pleased, no thrilled, to report that the Java and JS branches of Jalview, after some time apart, have been reunited on the Jalview-JS/develop branch. This now incorporates most changes for 2.11, as well as all adaptations for JalviewJS, and is therefore The Future. The Future can be found at
https://builds.jalview.org/artifact/JB-JB1/shared/build-10/jalviewjs/jalview_bin_Jalview.html?open examples/unire50.fa features examples/exampleFeatures.txt
JalviewJS does pretty much everything that Jalview Java does, except:
- run web services (alignment etc)
- talk to Chimera
- load VCF data
- make the coffee - no wait, Jalview doesn’t do that either
It can read and write Jalview project files - but loading large projects (e.g. gene+features) is for now still prohibitively slow (minutes).
The remaining changes for 2.11 will be merged to develop and JalviewJS as they are signed off.
After 2.11 release we should then have a single unified codebase.
Meanwhile, please let me know if you spot any strange behaviour!
thanks,

Yes, great achievement getting it merged Mungo! Lets hope there aren’t too many surprises lurking in the merged codebase!
Ben, you had the laptop open in this picture at the poster…

Geoff.
It is genuinely amazing. At the poster session, once I was standing up in front of a static poster telling people about it, it occurred to me that anyone that knew what it meant would probably think (/prefer to believe) the JalviewJS screenshot was a mockup. I felt I had to keep stressing it actually existed! 
Alas not enough room for the laptop to be visible, but it definitely needs to be seen in real life!

Congratulations, Mungo!
If it’s changed since the last Gitter update, please send the URL to check out the project. (Or maybe send it anyway.)

Can I get a copy of that poster? (PowerPoint, I presume?) I’m sure I could use some of that for the GLBio meeting in May.

Hi Bob,
I’ve sent you the links (full-res and more manageable lower-res) off-list.
