Hi Andreas and everybody,

I agree.  The field has evolved much since ClustalW-MPI was forked from Clustat
W, and we packaged a large number of Free alternatives that solve the same
problem (aligning more sequences).  In parallell (no pun :), ClustalW-MPI's
development was abandonned many years ago.

I also think that it is time to remove it.

Have a nice day,
