Thank you for your interest in the cognoma project [ http://dev.list.galaxyproject.org/cognoma-td4669691.html ]. As it turns out, we have heard of Galaxy. It would be hard to be in computational biology and unaware of Galaxy. We appreciate the galaxy project's contributions to web-based workflows in bioinformatics. For the use case and target audience that we aim to serve, galaxy seemed less suited than alternative light weight and modular approaches. 

Of course, we appreciate your enthusiasm for galaxy and cognoma! If you feel passionately that galaxy is the right framework, the easiest way to demonstrate that is by delivering a galaxy-cognoma solution.

Thanks!
Casey
