Made it so that the admins of a project are sent email when users decide whether or not to accept an invitation. * BioFS: Webdav now honors the 304 "Use local copy" code, which should speed accesses of previously accessed files. Before, the server was just resending the file each time. No need to do that if the user already has a copy. * Control Panel: Added in checking to make sure that a user can actually see file operations (by checking permissions) before notifying them that something has changed. Before, I was sending out notification of new files without checking. So, if a user had a directory with permissions of 700, for instance, others were seeing notification of new files in that directory. Now they don't. *Control Panel: Reworked notification of users joining/leaving projects due to some cases where the Control Panel wasn't being updated properly. One user had removed themselves from a project, and the Control Panels (both that user's and others) weren't being updated to reflect this. Digging into this uncovered some other inconsistencies with the code that were also fixed. -- Kirby Vandivort Theoretical and Senior Research Programmer Computational Biophysics Email: kvandivo@ks.uiuc.edu 3051 Beckman Institute http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/~kvandivo/ University of Illinois Phone: (217) 244-5711 405 N.

June 16, 2005 * Projects: It is now possible to create a public project without the requirement of creating a corresponding private project. * Public Projects: You can now create web pages that are visible to the entire world. To do these, we suggest doing the following: 1. In the BioFS folder for the public project, make a subdirectory where you will store the webpages. 2. Put the web pages in this directory. The index.html file will be automatically accessed and you should use relative paths for images, etc. 3. Access it! If you have named your public project MyProj and you called your subdirectory www the URL to access it would be: http://biocore.ks.uiuc.edu/biocore/biofs/MyProj/www/ 4. Permission access is based on the 'other' permissions given in the file permissions for the file. Permissions for files in public projects default to "644" which allows anyone to read them. If you have files in your public project that you don't want to be visible to the entire world you can change the permissions via the web interface. * BioFS: The web interface is more tolerant of filenames with non alphanumeric characters now. * BioFS: Fixed some bugs where public project files weren't being made visible to non members. * Control Panel: A user on Windows XP Pro and Java 1.5 was getting a warning when starting the CP about a missing command. The Control Panel now checks for Windows and skips this code. * Control Panel: URLs of the form www.ks.uiuc.edu are now recognized as being a URL. Before, http://www.ks.uiuc.edu was required for recognition. * Public Projects: Added explicit text at the top of the web pages to tell the user that they are in a public project. -- Kirby Vandivort Theoretical and Senior Research Programmer Computational Biophysics Email: kvandivo@ks.uiuc.edu 3051 Beckman Institute http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/~kvandivo/ University of Illinois Phone: (217) 244-5711 405 N.

The Theoretical and Computational Biophysics Group (TCBG) at the University of Illinois is proud to announce the release of a completely new incarnation of the Biological Collaborative Research Environment (BioCoRE) Server software. BioCoRE is a tool-oriented web-based collaborative environment where users create project groups and can then share molecular views, messages, files, and more among the members of their projects. BioCoRE is freely available for use and testing on the Theoretical and Computational Biophysics Group's BioCoRE server and is the server software is distributed free of charge. Development is supported by the NIH National Center for Research Resources. The Theoretical and Computational Biophysics Group (TCBG) has been developing the BioCoRE collaborative environment for several years and has completely redesigned the interface and underlying code structure. The new version of the server has a more modern look, previously unavailable features, such as a poll/quiz generation module, and is generally much more robust (particularly in the area of file sharing among collaborators). This new version, which was previously only available for testing on the TCBG's server, is now available for installation at remote locations. Installation of a BioCoRE server offers users potentially faster access and gives administrators increased customizability. BioCoRE Tour - http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/biocore/tour/ Familiarize yourself with BioCoRE's features. The Theoretical and Computational Biophysics Group BioCoRE server is available for testing and is always running the latest version. We encourage you to create and test an account on our server before installing your own server. http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/biocore/ Server Software Download - http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/biocore/localServer/ -- Kirby Vandivort Theoretical and Senior Research Programmer Computational Biophysics Email: kvandivo@ks.uiuc.edu 3051 Beckman Institute http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/~kvandivo/ University of Illinois Phone: (217) 244-5711 405 N.

Before, it took you to the overall top level folder. * Control Panel: When typing a URL into the chat field, added the ability to specify the text to show, as well as the URL itself. Before, you could say something like Go to http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/ to check it out, and it would look like: Go to http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/ to check it out Now, you can say Go to [http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/ our site] to check it out and you will see: Go to our site to check it out * Control Panel Scripting: Added in the ability to parse XML strings within scripts. For an example use case, refer to the cafemenu.py script in the BioCoRE Help (Public) project. A DOMElement is returned, which has methods such as: getName(), getText(), getAttribute() * BioFS: Accessing /biocore/biofs via a web browser was causing a technical fault. This has been fixed and now displays a list of public projects. When you click on a public project, you will be taken to the home page for the public project if one has been set up by the project administrator. * BioFS: Revised 'new directory' code to reload the folder view so that the user can see the newly created folder. * BioFS: Fixed a bug that was causing an error if a person that isn't logged in tries to go to /biocore/biofs/ in their web browser. * BioFS:Fixed a bug that was causing problems when uploading to a user's /Private directory. * BioFS:The web interface is more tolerant of filenames with non alphanumeric characters now. * Notebook: Fixed a bug that was allowing a user to delete other's entries when they shouldn't have been able to. * TCL Api:Fixed a problem with parsing of curly braces when saving notebook entries. * Utilities:Fixed a error page that was showing up if a user tried to remove themself from a project that they had already been removed from. -- Kirby Vandivort Theoretical and Senior Research Programmer Computational Biophysics Email: kvandivo@ks.uiuc.edu 3051 Beckman Institute http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/~kvandivo/ University of Illinois Phone: (217) 244-5711 405 N.

Summary of major changes: * Job Management can now stage files from the BioFS to the remote supercomputer. * The TCL API now has Control Panel functionality. This could be used, for instance, to add chatting capabilities to any program that can work with TCL. * The web interface now has clickable module summaries. In the menu on the left side of each page you can now click on the heading text for the modules (Documents, Workbench, Notebook) and get summary text for what each component provides. More details of the changes: * Job Management:File staging updates so that files are now transmitted to and from the BioFS and the computational machines. * Job Management:Fixed some bugs that were preventing accurate account monitoring. * API: Added a proof-of-concept TCL control panel to the distribution. This code assumes that you have a valid .biocoreSession file (typically obtained from having an open control panel) with user authentication information. It then creates a socket connection with the BioCoRE server and listens for new messages. It also has the functionality of allowing a user to add chats from TCL. Discussed at the TCL API page (http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/biocore/dev/tcl/ ). * Added in summary pages for the Documents, Workbench, and Notebook modules that new users can click on to get more information about what the various components provide. * BioFS:Fixed a bug that was causing file deletion notices to not get sent to the control panel. * BioFS:Had a case where a user aborted a file upload and the file remained locked. Configured partial file uploads so that they will release the lock on the file. If anyone notices problems with this behavior, please let us know. * BioFS: Tweaked http://.../biocore/biofs so that it doesn't include links to projects that don't have an index.html file. * Control Panel:Added text to the About box to tell users if they are not running the current version of the Control Panel. * Control Panel:Fixed a bug where system messages weren't getting sent to private chat windows. * Control Panel:Fixed a bug in the XML parsing that occurred when the XML document contained comments. * Control Panel: Scripting - Menu and menu items can now be removed. For example usages see the scripts in the BioCoRE Help project. * Control Panel: Scripting - Added methods to retrieve a particular project tab based on its name or the project id. * Control Panel: Minor addition to previous commit that allowed multi line pasting. It wasn't working for private chats (which you can get by clicking on someone's name in the user list, or doing /msg userName message you want to say. * Fixed a bug in XML parsing that was causing it to incorrectly handle documents with line breaks in the tag name. * Scripting: Revised set of who can delete notebook entries to include author and project administrator. -- Kirby Vandivort Theoretical and Senior Research Programmer Computational Biophysics Email: kvandivo@ks.uiuc.edu 3051 Beckman Institute http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/~kvandivo/ University of Illinois Phone: (217) 244-5711 405 N.

You are far better off using your favorite external web browser (like firefox) because it has the latest web features. But if, for whatever reason, you can't get the external browser to work you can choose to use the internal browser by selecting it under the Help menu. * Control Panel:Experimental file downloading via the Control Panel. If you go to File | Browse BioFS and choose a file, it will actually be downloaded to your local system (if you are on unix). It currently places the file in /tmp/file. That's the name of the downloaded file. Clearly, a better interface needs to be built for this to be useful. I've had this capability in for some time and decided to go ahead and release it as is. * BioFS: When you upload a file via the web page, you should get an upload dialog telling you how the upload is proceeding. For small files and fast connections, you might not even notice it. But, for long uploads on slow connections, it should be very helpful.

Use for bold text, for italics, and for color, where COLOR can be either a hex color code like #FF000 or a Java color constant like "red" or "blue". * Revised the format of the .biocoreSession file that is written by the Control Panel in the user's home directory. This affects users who are using the BioCoRE API. If you are using the API, please download and install the latest version of the API, which supports the new format. * Various bug fixes, of course.
