[kepler-dev] Kepler 2.4 released

[Daniel Crawl]

We are pleased to announce the release of Kepler 2.4. This release
contains numerous bug fixes and enhancements, and provides a platform
for the upcoming releases of bioKepler (biokepler.org) and the
Reporting Suite. Significant changes include:

- Better support for running KAR workflows on the command line.
- Display and plotting actors write their text or images to files
   when run headless with the "-redirectgui" option.
- Workflow demos now appear in the actor library.
- New workflow demos for branching and looping.
- Documentation added for many actors and parameters.
- Recent history added to the file menu.
- Entities in a workflow can now be searched in the outline tab.
- Over 100 additional Ptolemy actors are included in the actor library.
- The Job actors now support the LSF scheduler.
- The SDF Director now defaults to one iteration.


Kepler 2.4 can be downloaded from:

         https://kepler-project.org/users/downloads


If you already have Kepler 2.3, you can use the Module Manager to
upgrade to 2.4. If you have Kepler 2.2 or older, we do not recommend
using the Module Manager; instead download the installer (there's no
need to uninstall the old version).
