Dear TCGA Colleagues, Version 2012_01_10 of the Firehose stddata package has been uploaded and will be available in the tcga4yeo tree pending internal mirroring by the DCC. This is the first of our January data runs, and shows little change in sample counts from the previous month. For more information please consult our dashboard at https://confluence.broadinstitute.org/display/GDAC/Status-Data+Runs and note that to simplify data retrieval it now links directly to the DCC locations from which the corresponding archives may be downloaded. Comments and questions are welcome at gdac@broadinstitute.org. Regards, Michael S. Noble
