RAxML has recently been updated and is now available for download as 
RAxML-7.1.0 at
http://wwwkramer.in.tum.de/exelixis/software.html

I am still working on an updated Manual so please consult the on-line help
via "raxmlHPC -h".

This is the alpha release, so please expect a lot of bugs, weird program 
outputs etc.

To report bugs send me an email and please send me all input files, the exact 
invocation,
details of the HW and operating system, as well as all error messages printed 
to screen.

The MPI version does not work yet, only Pthreads and the sequential version 
work.

To compile:

sequential: "make -f Makefile.gcc"
Pthreads:   "male -f Makefile.PTHREADS"

New features:

    * Improved parallel load balance for Pthreads version when conducting 
per-partition branch length estimate
    * Binary (Morphological) and Secondary Structure models implemented
    * Estimate of GTR model of amino acid substitution
    * Added LG model of protein substitution
    * Computation of RF and WRF tree distances
    * Implementation of significantly faster methods to operate on bipartitions 
of trees
    * Implementation of WC and FC Bootstrap convergence criteria, they can be 
executed on the fly or a posteriori
    * For details on the bootstop method see N.D. Pattengale, M. Alipour, 
O.R.P. Bininda-Emonds, B.M.E. Moret,
      A. Stamatakis: "How Many Bootstrap Replicates are Necessary?". 
Proceedings of RECOMB 2009 preprint at
      http://lcbb.epfl.ch/bootstopping.pdf
    * Rapid Bootstraps now feasible under CAT, GAMMA, as well as GAMMA+P-Invar
    * Parsimony ratchet implementation
    * 4 Algorithms to classify sequences from environmental samples into a 
given reference tree
      (to be described in more detail)

I have fixed various bugs and slightly changed the search algorithms and 
command line interface.

Comments and suggestions are always welcome.

Best regards,

Alexis
