------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
Release date: August 2013

OpenMS 1.11 is the first release with fully integrated Python bindings (termed pyOpenMS).

----                                  OpenMS 1.9                                      ---- 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
Release date: February 2012

OpenMS 1.9 has some major changes in TOPP tool names and usage. Therefore all .ini files
for "typed" TOPP tools (i.e. those with a "type" parameter) built with OpenMS 1.8 and below
are incompatible! To fix your old .ini and .toppas files use the new
INIUpdater tool (see its documentation and the TOPP documentation in general).

OpenMS 1.9 removed support for Mac OS X 10.5.

Documentation:
- new Quickstart tutorial
- dedicated and reworked TOPPAS tutorial
 
TOPPView improvements:
-MODIFIED:
  - ConsensusFeatures can now be colored using MetaValues
  - better grid line drawing/calculation, extracted AxisPainter class
  - IdentificationView:
    - added automatic labeling with peptide fragment sequence
    - theoretical spectrum is now hidden by default (labeling contains relevant information for most use cases)
    - automatic zoom to measured MS2 data range

TOPPAS improvements: 
	- TOPPAS allows for interactive download of preconfigured TOPPAS pipelines from OpenMS homepage
	- "Recycling" mode for nodes, useful for database input files (see docu for details)
- more flexible pipeline design for Merger nodes
- Merger nodes (merge, merge all) renamed to "Merge" (one round) and "Collect" (all rounds)
	 

TOPP tools: 
- ADDED:
  - MapStatistics: statistics for low level quality control
  - EICExtractor: quantify known RT, m/z locations in one or many LC/MS maps and align them
  - MassTraceExtractor: annotate mass traces in centroided LC/MS maps - useful for metabolomics and top-down proteomics (use FeatureFinder tools for peptides)
  - FeatureFinderRaw: feature finding on raw data
	- FeatureFinderMetabo: feature finding for metabolites
  - IDConflictResolver: resolve ambiguous annotations of features with peptide identifications
- MODIFIED:
  - FeatureFinder: split into FeatureFinderMRM, FeatureFinderCentroided, FeatureFinderIsotopeWavelet
  - FeatureLinker: split into FeatureLinkerLabeled, FeatureLinkerUnlabeled, FeatureLinkerUnlabeledQT
  - FeatureLinker tools remove unneeded data after loading featureXML files to conserve memory
  - MapAligner: split into MapAlignerIdentification, MapAlignerPoseClustering, MapAlignerSpectrum, and MapRTTransformer
  - model parameters of MapAligner tools are now set in the INI file
  - MapAlignerIdentification: don't fail if parameter "min_run_occur" is set too high, warn and use possible maximum instead
  - NoiseFilter: split into NoiseFilterGaussian and NoiseFilterSGolay
  - PeakPicker: split into PeakPickerWavelet and PeakPickerHiRes
  - PILISModel: split into PILISModelCV, PILISModelTrainer, and PILISSpectraGenerator
  - MascotAdapterOnline: now supports Mascot 2.3 servers
  - ProteinQuantifier: added support for writing idXML (suitable for export to mzTab)
  - IDFileConverter: when reading pepXML, fail if the requested experiment (parameters "mz_file"/"mz_name") could not be found in the file
- REMOVED:
  - AndiMS/NetCDF is no longer supported on any platform
  - removed IDDecoyProbability tool
 
UTIL tools: 
- ADDED:
  - INIUpdater: update INI and TOPPAS files
  - TransformationEvaluation: evaluate a (RT) transformation by applying it to a range of values
- REMOVED:
  - CaapConvert
  - UniqueIdAssigner
  - HistView
	 
Changes to the Build System: 
	- TOPPAS now requires Qt's Webkit library
	- Use CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE instead of OPENMS_BUILD_TYPE (removed)
	- Use CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH instead of CONTRIB_CUSTOM_DIR (deprecated)
  - Removed AndiMS, NetCDF and dependencies
	- Removed dependency to imslib, relevant classes were moved directly to OpenMS/CHEMISTRY/MASSDECOMPOSITION/IMS
- OpenMS now supports ctests functionality for optimized and parallel testing (see ticket #363)
