Re: [galaxy-dev] Search software on public Galaxy servers
Hi, I completely agree with Hans proposal. Creating a new page to list all the tools would be a good alternative. In addition, this page could offer categories of bioinformatic tools and more information of the tool in question. Nevertheless, a Google search box is a very good starting point. The potential of Galaxy is very high and organizing all the ready-to-use tools can, on the one hand, save a lot of time to people who needs a specific tool and, on the other hand, exploit the full potential of Galaxy Public servers that, in my opinion, the still chaotic mode to use these servers is limiting Galaxy usability and popularity.

Re: [galaxy-dev] Search software on public Galaxy servers
The tools API, incomplete as it is, could be used to automatically generate a list of tools for a single instance. J.
