The upgrade is complete. Fiji now ships with Bio-Formats 5.0.0.
The two Bio-Formats update sites have been consolidated to one. If you were
tracking either one, they will both upgrade you to the latest Bio-Formats 5
development build now.
Please let us know if you have any trouble updating your Fiji!

The plan is for Fiji to continue shipping with stable release versions of
Bio-Formats by default. And by enabling the Bio-Formats update site, you
can further upgrade to development builds. Right now these are pushed
daily, but long-term I want to push them right away each time changes are
made.
