Hello,

Ray 1.7 was released on 2011-10-03, almost 6 months ago.

We are proud to release Ray 2.0-Release Candidate 5.
A release candidate is usually something quite stable.


Summary of changes:

New features:


- A obvious peak in the coverage distribution is not required anymore.
- Ray works on meta-genomes.
- Reference sequences can be provided to do k-mer counting with a
colored de Bruijn graph.
- A taxonomic tree can be provided to perform taxonomic profiling using
a distributed de Bruijn graph with virtual coloring.
- A new output file contains contig neighbours.
- A new directory called BiologicalAbundances contains biological
abundances.
- Ray can be compiled with CMake.
- A header was added for scaffold links.
- Contig are identified if reference sequences are provided via -search.
- The speed is now shown in each step (like assembling at 5000
k-mers/second).
- A new option can enable message routing for large jobs.
- The algorithm that computes assembly seeds was modified to avoid
assembly errors at this point.
- Expiry positions for sequence reads are improved.
- The file ElapsedTime contains the elapsed time.
- Several options were added to debug assemblies.


Code refactoring:

- Test suites are in a distinct project.
- Ray was ported to a new plugin architecture called RayPlatform. 
- The code that helps with content creation is now in RayPlatform. Ray
ships with this.
- The seed extension code was refactored.

Tests:

- New tests for peak calling for pairs of sequences.


Bug fixes:

- A bug that generated a segmentation fault in the virtual communicator
in some very rare cases.
