Hi everybody,
We have started to duplicate some entries for major versions, whenever the new version will affect the behavior of the tool (different algorithms, different command line, etc..). For instance, we have now a Bowtie and Bowtie2 tool page on OMICtools. We do not have an expertise on all the bioinformatics fields (we cannot definitively be experts on 30,000 tools we have on our database). We just do our best, and we rely on our community to even do better. So, if you think ImageJ should have 2 entries, you just have to contact us directly and tell us. This is the best way to improve OMICtools and to correct what you think is wrong. By the way, I asked to our team about the possibility to create pages like : https://omictools.com/OMICS_xxxxx To allow you to directly link to us without using DuckDuckGo. This is in discussion and hope it will be accepted and implemented. Best, Fabien ________________________________ De : Steffen Möller <[email protected]> Envoyé : jeudi 20 décembre 2018 02:21:39 À : [email protected] Cc : Debian Med Objet : Re: OMICtools of any use?

I sense that OMICtools had felt that this is why there should be only a single entry for it. > That entry would make more sense once ImageJ2 gets packaged > in Debian and someone has already packaged imglib2. Let's see what happens. Cheers, Steffen
