Dear Community,

The Galaxy Committers team is pleased to announce the release of Galaxy
22.01.

   - Developer and admin release announcement
   <https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/releases/22.01_announce.html>.
   - User release announcement
   <https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/releases/22.01_announce_user.html>
   .

A few release highlights are:
New Colour Selector

Do you use tools which require colour inputs, like Circos? Previously, we
had a very restricted colour input which gave you a very limited palette.
Now, you have complete freedom of choice with the modern colour selector.
Improved File Export

If you've been exporting files from Galaxy lately, you've probably seen the
amazing new remote file source export, which allows you to export files to
FTP, Dropbox, and other locations.
Improved File Uploads

Previously, Galaxy servers used a variety of methods to let you upload
large files easily, including some servers which required FTP for large
files. We have replaced this with a new upload method, which will be
enabled on all usegalaxy servers soon. This will make file uploads
significantly smoother, and will be more tolerant of network failures and
interruptions! You do not need to make any changes.
Beta History: Collection Improvements

If you've been trying out the beta history (which will be the default
history in the next release!), it has been updated to indicate whether
collections are homogeneous or heterogeneous. This will help you see more
easily if you've accidentally included an incorrect dataset.
Galaxy starts as a FastAPI application by default

Starting Galaxy via run.sh will use the new gravity process manager
<https://github.com/galaxyproject/gravity>. The new configuration uses
Gunicorn <https://gunicorn.org/> and FastAPI <https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/> to
drive Galaxy's web process, and starts job handler and Celery
<https://docs.celeryproject.org/> processes automatically. For more details
and instructions, please consult the Migrating to Gunicorn documentation
<https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/latest/admin/migrating_to_gunicorn>.
User Preferences can be encrypted in Galaxy Vault

Galaxy can now be configured to store secrets in an external vault, which
is useful for secure handling and centralization of secrets management. In
particular, information fields in the "Manage information" section of the
user profile, such as dropbox keys, can be configured to be encrypted at
rest in a vault (Hashicorp, Custos or database) instead of being stored as
plain text in the user preferences table. For detailed information on
configuration, refer to the vault section
<https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/release_22.01/admin/special_topics/vault.html>
of
the admin documentation.

Thanks for using Galaxy!
