[ensembl-dev] Discrepancies for rat gene Hps1

Hi all,

Before e70, when Ensembl changed the genome assembly used for rats from 
rn4 to rn5, the rat Hps1 gene was located at ENSRNOG00000015891. After 
that point Ensembl seems to have retired that ID in favour of 
ENSRNOG00000045838 (HPS), the annotation of which sounds like it's a 
different gene. On the other hand, the Hps1 gene has been continued in 
the rn5 in RGD (69193) and EntrezGene (114638).

While I understand different annotation pipeline would generate 
different results as gene annotation is concerned, do you think this is 
a discrepancy that you may fix?

Thanks for the reply in advance!
