  • #1589: All deprecated methods and classes have been removed
  • #1595: New names of BASE JAR files (make sure that no old ones are laying around)
  • #1592: Unified installation system. Changes to XML definition files. Removed Plugin.getAbout() method.
  • Changes to methods in Version class.
  • Changes to ExtensionsControl and Registry classes.
  • #1597: Replaced ProtocolType, HardwareType, SoftwareType and FileType with ItemSubtype.
  • #1153:
    • Label has been replaced with Tag.
    • LabeledExtract has been merged with Extract.
    • Changes to the API for linking parent/child biomaterial.
    • Removed pooled property from biomaterial.
