Release of OMERO & Bio-Formats 5.0.7

Jean-Marie Burel (Staff)
Dear All,

Today we are launching 5.0.7, a bug-fixing release.

For OMERO this includes:

* Rendering improvements including 32 bit and float support
* Vast improvements in Mac launching (separate clients for your Java
version)
* Faster import of complex plates
* OMERO.dropbox improvements
* ROI and measurement tool fixes
* OMERO.matlab updates


Bio-Formats fixes include:

* ND filter parsing for DeltaVision
* Timepoint count and original metadata parsing for Metamorph
* Build issues when Genshi or Git are missing
* LZW image decoding
* Minor core formats (OME/XML/TIFF) improvements
* Minor doc improvements - Eclipse build instructions and documenting
using Bio-Formats in Python (extensive developer doc improvements coming
in 5.1)


The software is available from
http://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/omero/5.0.7/
and http://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/bio-formats/5.0.7/

For full details of the next major release, see the 5.1 milestone page -

We currently intend 5.0.7 to be the last update to the 5.0.x series. Our
development focus is on the OME 5.1 line and updating the OME Data Model
for the next schema release, which we will announce shortly.

Kind regards,

The OME team
