Hi Beat
The missing information has now been added to the Ensembl gene 72 mart database on www.ensembl.org. Thanks again for reporting this.

We make every effort to inform our users about what changes to expect in a future release via our blog. We also extensively test and QC all our data and infrastructure before every release.

I will email as soon as our archive website is back up for release 71 so that you can start your pipeline and we will aim to replace the missing data in the Ensembl gene mart as soon as possible.

We will try to rectify this as quickly as possible but it may take a day or two to generate and add to the live BioMart database. In the mean time, I will report the issue with the archive BioMart to our web team and hopefully you should be able to get the data from there until we reinstate the data. Apologies for any inconvenience caused and thanks again for reporting the bugs.
