Bowtie 2 2.0.5 released

Subject: [Bowtie-bio-announce] Bowtie 2 2.0.5 released

Bowtie 2 version 2.0.5  - January 4, 2013
  * Fixed an issue that would cause excessive memory allocation when aligning
    to very repetitive genomes.
  * Fixed an issue that would cause a pseudo-randomness-related assert to be
    thrown in debug mode under rare circumstances.
  * When bowtie2-build fails, it will now delete index files created so far so
    that invalid index files don't linger.
  * Tokenizer no longer has limit of 10,000 tokens, which was a problem for
    users trying to index a very large number of FASTA files.
  * Updated manual's discussion of the -I and -X options to mention that
    setting them farther apart makes Bowtie 2 slower.
  * Renamed COPYING to LICENSE and created a README to be GitHub-friendly.

Best,
Ben
