[MOBY-dev] Taverna Moby Problems

[Pieter Neerincx]

Hi Andreas,

I know Eddie is working on this. There is also the issue that  
fetching the data to do a semantic search can be extremely slow right  
now. Eddie told me he will implement some caching for the data types  
similar to how the services are cached. A new Taverna 1.7 that  
contains fixes for these issues was announced for monday December 17  
(yesterday). Apparently it's delayed a bit, but you'll probably see  
it very soon.

In case soon is not soon enough: we had a course last week with a  
Taverna and BioMOBY workshop. Fortunately Eddie was there :) and I  
have a patched Taverna 1.6.2 we used for that course. It has the  
speed issue described above, bu apart from that it's fully  
functional. Let me know if you need copy...

Cheers,

Pi
