[go] AmiGO beta announcement

[David Hill]

Hi Amelia,

I think the important thing I am trying to get at is that if someone 
writes a paper using one of the tools we provide, we need to have a way 
of tracking how they did their analysis so the 'experiment' can be 
repeated if necessary. I have been frustrated in the past trying to 
figure out how people got results they did when I couldn't repeat the 
analysis.
