TRANSITION

       The format of the DT line will change in early 2004 from:

	DT   01-JUL-1993 (Rel. 26, Created)
	DT   01-JUL-1993 (Rel. 26, Last sequence update)
	DT   28-FEB-2003 (Rel. 41, Last annotation update)

       to:

	DT   01-JUL-1993, integrated into UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot.
	DT   01-JUL-1993, sequence version 36.
	DT   28-FEB-2003, entry version 54.

       This module supports both formats. To convert an entry from the old to the new format, do:

	$entry->DTs->CREATED_rel("UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot");
	$entry->DTs->ANN_version(54);
	$entry->DTs->SQ_version(36);
