And Galaxy had a predecessor called Gala, probably also implemented in perl. Belinda may also have published a paper about Gala. Bob H On Jun 12, 2012, at 8:36 AM, Hans-Rudolf Hotz wrote:
Hi Peter
Have a look at Anton's talk "Introduction to Galaxy" at last years GCC meeting: http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Events/GCC2011
The first few slides are talking about the history of Galaxy, eg:
"Galaxy as a single Perl script (!)"

Hi everyone
The Galaxy system as described in Belinda Giardine et al's 2005 Genome Research paper ("Galaxy: A platform for interactive large-scale genome analysis") appears to be radically different from the current Galaxy, at least in its technical specification. The paper mentions a C core spoken to by a Perl-based web user interface (referred to as the History User Interface). The co-authors on the paper are, however, familiar names from the current Galaxy team. Was this paper describing something in the pre-history of current Galaxy (it sounds rather like the current History but without workflows and of course implemented on a different platform)?
