Those cohorts now get a table of their own below the rest. The split is read off the trackDb parent chain, so the next cohort added under varFreqs lands in the right table with no edit here. The page moves off the htdocs root to goldenPath/help/mirrorTracks.html, beside mirror.html, which now links to it. That link goes in src/product/README.txt, the pandoc source mirror.html is generated from. The licensing page link follows the move, and the page title changes with the file name. Also adds the weekly otto line, placed above the HGDB_CONF that would otherwise apply to it, and keeps the job from listing itself as a self-updating track.

Sometimes, the source databases or authors place restrictions on data. In very rare cases, the genomes come with citation requirements. The README.txt file in the download directory of each assembly shows the original restrictions pertaining to the genome sequence itself by the original authors; most assemblies do not have any restrictions.

Certain genome annotation data, mostly on the human genome and in the domain of clinical genetics, have specific restrictions. For some of these, we are not allowed to make the data available. Usually the data must be obtained from the source database directly in the original format or licensed, rather than from UCSC. Examples are HGMD, LOVD, OMIM, Decipher, Genomenon, GeneHancer and COSMIC. For viral genomes, any GISAID-sequences or any data -derived from GISAID sequences cannot be shared by us. See this list +derived from GISAID sequences cannot be shared by us. See this list of tracks that we cannot distribute for the exact set. Please see the respective track documentation pages on these assemblies for more details, by selecting the assembly and clicking the track title in the genome browser. They usually list or link to the exact license conditions. Files for these tracks are not available from our download servers, please contact us for questions or if you need a pointer to the respective conversion scripts in our Github code repository.
