Releases

Version Controlled Annotations Release 2016-01-14 00:15:03

All annotations and metadata from the initial release are now version controlled. Several annotation file name errors have been corrected.

The code has been restructured to rely primarily on the version controlled metadata, rather than the audio from the full dataset.
