Hi Anton, amazingly i was just about to send you the 'user account' suggestion ;-) does that mean that when sharing a history with other people, the history owner would be able to set basic read/write access to it? that would be very useful!

i have another suggestion: when creating a new history item with the left-pane tools, and then editing its attributes to make it more human-readable, would it be possible to keep its original attributes somewhere? for instance: 1- i subtract gencode exons from my est alignments 2- i rename the output to 'ESTs not overlapping gencode exons' 3- i do whatever operation on 'ESTs not overlapping gencode exons'. let's say it gives me weird results, so i want to check if i did the right thing at step 1. AFAIK this is impossible right now. see what i mean?

cheers j

Folks,

A new version (2.2) of Galaxy is available at

http://g2.bx.psu.edu:8889

Aside from completely new underpinnings it now features USER ACCOUNTS and the ability to have MULTIPLE HISTORIES for each user.

IMPORTANT -> THIS IS A TEST SITE. Once we move it to the production level all histories will be LOST.

The stable version of Galaxy, Galaxy2ENCODE and the old test site are still available at the following URLs:

New to Galaxy? See these two movies:

Here is a short QuickTime movie showing Galaxy's usage example:

A more complex example [requiring popcorn (or beer) -> 20 min] with ENCODE data is here:

Thanks for your support!
