News From the Galaxy Development Team
Hello Galaxy Users, The Galaxy development team is starting a new initiative for communicating important announcements about Galaxy to our users. We will be sending announcements like this one to the galaxy-user@bx.psu.edu email list, so if you are interested in receiving these announcements, please be sure to subscribe to this list. We are also in the process of adding a "News" page to our Galaxy wiki documentation, so some announcements will be available there as well. Here are the highlights of the new features that are currently available on our Galaxy test environment at http://test.g2.bx.psu.edu/. Maf Limit to Species Tool This tool offers the ability to remove any undesired species from a MAF file. Columns which contain only gaps are removed. The user can choose to keep or discard blocks which do not have all the desired species. The user can also choose to include blocks which contain only a single species. Enhanced LAJ Tool We have added a dialog box for filtering the input data. This eliminates a problem we were having with integer overflow. Enhanced Build Lists of the Upload Tool and Edit Attributes Build lists are now alphabetized (by display name) in edit attributes and the upload tool. Miscellaneous We have made several miscellaneous improvements throughout the application, including (but not limited to) better descriptions of errors encountered with invalid data source files (even more improvements coming in this area). As stated above, we'll continue to contact you with new about important Galaxy enhancements and updates. Thanks very much, The Galaxy Development Team
