We are pleased to announce the *release of Galaxy 18.09
<https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/release_18.09/releases/18.09_announce.html>*.
A few release highlights are:
<http://localhost:8095/news/2018-9-galaxy-release/#extensive-workflow-enhancements>
Extensive Workflow Enhancements
Workflows got a lot of love this time around, with new runtime parameters
for subworkflows, exposed workflow versions, and zoom capability in the
editor, to name a few. There were also a number of usability enhancements
including better labeling, links, overhauled workflow import interfaces,
and many more.
<http://localhost:8095/news/2018-9-galaxy-release/#group-tags> Group Tags
Galaxy now contains powerful new features for multiple factor analysis of
collections of datasets. The concept of group tags has been added to
Galaxy. These are a special class of tags that describe key-value pairs
that can be attached to the contents of a collection during upload or using
collection operation tools. These tags can describe multiple sets of
variables for the contents of a collection. Once set, these tags can be
consumed intelligently by tools that need to divide collections into
multiple overlapping factors or sets of datasets. A special thanks to
@mvdbeek for devising and implementing this approach.
<http://localhost:8095/news/2018-9-galaxy-release/#python-3-beta-support>
Python 3 Beta Support
After almost 3 years of work and more than 100 pull requests, we are proud
to announce the Beta-stage support for running Galaxy under Python 3. Lint,
unit, API, framework, integration and Selenium tests all pass, time for you
to give it a try and report any bug you find!
Please see the full release notes
