            <p>Beta version of compclust 1.1 made available</p>
            <p>Version 1.1 focuses on making installation from the python
            source much simpler and far more robust. 
            </p>
            <p>New features consist of shipping the clustering algorithm
            binaries, installing those binaries when doing 
            <code>python setup.py install</code> and finding them after
            having installed compclust.
            </p>

            <p>
            You can get the source 
            <a href="compclust-1.1.zip">compclust-1.1.zip</a>
            If there are any problems please let us know. send email to 
            user compclust with a domain woldlab.caltech.edu
            </p>
            <p>
            Upcoming plans include fixing rendering of the TrajectorySummary 
            plot which gets crowded as the number of clusters increases. 
            More work on trying to opensource the C code, switching to Quixote2,
            simpler data loading tools, and a mysterious new pca analysis tool.

            <p>CompClust 1.0
release (previously known as 0.2.1)<br>
CompClustTk 1.0 release (previously known as 0.2.16)<br>
CompClustTk tutorial updated</p>
            <p> In the new
release, CompClustWeb, has made significant
progress toward being able to duplicate the functionality of
CompClustTk. </p>

            <p> CompClustWeb as
one might guess provides access to the
core CompClust functionality from within a web browser. It can be used
either from within an scgi compliant server or using one of the python
webservers (like medusa or twisted). </p>
            <p> CompClustWeb
supports loading multiple datasets
simultaneously, and has support for running the MultiRun cross
validated clustering algorithm. CompClustTk was our first GUI toolkit
and provides a significantly more interactive PCA browser, additionally
accessing the IPython command line to perform tasks such as log2
transforming a dataset is much easier from within the TK version. </p>
            <p> When run with one
of the python webservers it is
possible to access the datasets from within IPython although it is
currently undocumented how one might go abou taking advantage of this. </p>
            <p> Currently the
CompClustTk version also has better
documentation. </p>
            <p> We hope to create
a new release soon that will be the
last supported version for CompClustTk that includes the ability to run
MultiRun. We plan on making CompClustWeb our primary GUI environment in
future releases. </p>

            <p> Internally the
methods for accessing wrapper parameters
have gone through some significant changes and are hopefully much
easier to use if one is writing CompClust scripts. (If you're
interested the test cases contain examples of how these new features
work).<br>
