Dear All-

Today, the OME Consortium (http://openmicroscopy.org/site/about/development-teams) is proud to release OMERO-4.4.0-RC2.

This release candidate has been through another 2 weeks of serious testing by the OME team. As mentioned for RC1, OMERO-Beta4.4.0 focuses on updates to Permissions, a revamped web UI, and a number of other changes. Full details are available at http://trac.openmicroscopy.org.uk/ome/milestone/OMERO-Beta4.4

The software is available at http://hudson.openmicroscopy.org.uk/job/OMERO-trunk/3016/artifact/src/target/
(please note that as this is a RC it is for devs only; the public pages still point to the current 4.3.3/4.3.4 release.)

For those of you new to OMERO, see  http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/products/omero

OMERO-4.4.0-RC2 is for testing only, and should not be used for production installations. Unlike RC1, RC2 contains the DB upgrade from OMERO4.3__0 to OMERO4.4__0. This is a minimal upgrade that should take only seconds to complete. PLEASE NOTE: do NOT run the upgrade on your production server. Instead create a copy of your database from a DB backup and see how the upgrade goes for you. The primary difference you'll notice is that listing the group permissions ('select ome_perms(permissions) from experimentergroup') will show the new permission settings.

Any problems or comments, please use the OME Forums or mailing lists:

We're still targeting mid-July for the final release.

Cheers,
~Josh
