<div style="font-size: 14px; ">Hello ESGF Community, </div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; "><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; ">I am happy to announce the 1.6.1 release of the ESGF stack is out.</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; "><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; ">The release has updates across the board and some new functionality. It also addresses many off the issues posted to the lists and project repos and the concerns posted from the European installer meeting.</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; "><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; ">UV-CDAT has been significantly updated had shows off a new installation process using cmake. The install of UV-CDAT contains only what is needed for the current ESGF functionality and paves the way for further use of UV-CDAT
in the context of the forthcoming expanded compute capabilities of the ESGF stack.</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; "><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; ">There are several bug fixes across the stack that will be detailed the upcoming, corresponding release page.</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; ">There is are a small set of known issues (please refer the projects' issues pages on GitHub).</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; "><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; ">Nothing has changed with globus in this release – (big globus upgrade slated for the next release).</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; ">Therefore the same installation heuristic applies for the globus installation: When in the globus installation process, answer affirmative to all prompted questions regardless of the default value presented. ;-).</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; "><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; ">Thank you everyone in the community for all the contributions that has gotten us to here.</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; ">Many more exciting developments in store for the future.</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; "><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size: 14px; ">Happy Installing/Upgrading!!!</div>
