CoGe was developed at UC Berkeley and falls under their license which can be read at: http://ipira.berkeley.edu/page.php?nav=41

CoGe's software is divided into several components:

1. 1.Database (mysql)
   

2. 2.Database API (perl)
   

3. 3.Genome Location Visualization: GeLo (perl)
   

4. 4.Website and applications (perl, javascript, python, flash, HTML)
   

5. 5.Other stuff: alignment algorithms, etc.
   

As documentation often lags behind development, much of CoGe's software is not in a suitable condition for release. However, once it has been, we will post its code here.

GeLo, CoGe's genomic location visualization library, can easily be used as a stand alone software package. It the first of CoGe's components to have its code released.

OpenGenes: http://code.google.com/p/genome-browser/

OpenGenes is the interface for CoGe's Genome Browser to provide a dynamic environment for viewing genomic information. It is based on the GIS software Open Layers. This is programmed and maintained by Brent Pedersen and is available from google code:
