Staden has support for older versions of EMBOSS. We are trying to update 
Staden to work with EMBOS 3.0.0 and future releases.

If anyone is using EMBOSS and Staden (especially EMBOSS under the Staden SPIN 
interface) please contact the EMBOSS developers 
(emboss-bug at emboss.open-bio.org) so we know how many EMBOSS SPIN users there 
are. It helps to set priorities for the work.
