New GTDB database release

[pavlohrab]

Hello,

I see the statistics on GTDB, the amount of genomes doubled in the database since release 95, which is used in gunc. Is there a plan to update the GTDB database?

Best,
Pavlo

Is it also possible to update Progenomes database to progenomes 3? Is there an ETA? Or, for example, is there a way user can do that on their own?
