Dear TCGA Colleagues,

We're pleased to announce that the Nov 28th data standardization (stddata)
run has been uploaded and will be available in the tcga4yeo tree pending
internal mirroring by the DCC.

This stddata run is particularly noteworthy in that it marks the introduction
of RNA-Seq, in the form of ~900 mRNAseq and more than 2700 miRseq samples.  In
addition, clinical data have been re-introduced into the data package (but
higher-level clinical correlations will remain absent from our analyses runs,
pending further QC).  Finally, we will begin bundling MAFs with our stddata
package as of the December runs.  This data run is described in more detail
on our stddata page at

Michael S. Noble
(appreciatively on behalf of the VERY hard-working Broad GDAC team)
