[kepler-users] Kepler 2.2 Released

[David Welker]

Dear Kepler Community,

We are pleased to announce the Kepler 2.2 release. Probably the single  
most important change from a user perspective is greater efficiency in  
how much memory long running workflows consume. In addition to that,  
there have been important incremental improvements to the GUI, to the  
module manager, to patching, to the build system, to the installation  
process, to the kar system, to startup scripts, and more. We also have  
fixed many bugs that affected the user experience. For example,  it is  
now possible to install Kepler in a write-only area and yet users will  
still have the power to switch amongst installed Kepler configurations  
locally, improving the user experience w.r.t. system administration  
issues.

Finally, Kepler 2.2 has moved to Java 1.6. Users who are still working  
from Java 1.5 are urged to upgrade as the use of Java 1.5 with Kepler  
2.2 or higher is no longer supported.

Thanks to everyone whose hard work made this release possible! There  
have been many bug fixes and Kepler is greatly improved thanks to your  
efforts.
