The sample tracking system looks interesting. It looks like this is designed to have the sequencers modeled in Galaxy, have Galaxy pull the data from the sequencers, and might assume 1-1 pairing between sequencing run and samples. I'd like to be able to support pushing files from a central location and variably multiplexed runs, all via the API (or extensions to the API). Is there any up-to-date documentation on this feature?

In addition to Data Library templates, which are useful after the sequencer data has arrived in a Galaxy Data Library, Galaxy's sample tracking system includes sample run templates which are very similar to the Data Library templates, but are associated with a sample as it progresses through it's sequence run lifecycle in the facility. Sample run details templates are defined by the facility administrator. They can be created in the Admin view via the Manage form definitions menu link.
