Jalview's services will be unavailable from 17:00 GMT on Thurs 9 Dec until 9:00 on Monday 13 Dec 2021.

The downtime is due to major network engineering, and affects all of the Jalview and Barton group web servers.
If you urgently require Jalview analysis services during this period, we recommend you install the JABAWS virtual appliance and configure your Jalview desktop preferences so it can access it.
