Definitely going to happen now next week! :-)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fixes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class="simple"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Clearing the history of a GenericObjectEditor panel now correctly clears also
the list of commandlines (and no longer generates exceptions).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;SimplePlot&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;SequencePlotter&lt;/em&gt; sinks allow you to turn off the tool
tips for the plot.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;SerializationHelper&lt;/em&gt; class now always closes all streams to avoid any
race conditions between JVM and OS.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Marker data in &lt;em&gt;SequencePlotter&lt;/em&gt; is now correctly colored and only displayed
if corresponding sequence is visible.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Plot plugins &lt;em&gt;SimplePlot&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;JFreeChart&lt;/em&gt; for spreadsheet and Instances tables
now respect the sorting of the column when using subsets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;adams-ml:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;ActualVsPredicted&lt;/em&gt; sink now suppresses the plot tool tips as they
distract and annoy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;adams-spreadsheet:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;DefaultTypeMapper&lt;/em&gt; now maps &lt;code class="docutils literal"&gt;Types.DECIMAL&lt;/code&gt; to &lt;code class="docutils literal"&gt;DOUBLE&lt;/code&gt; instead
of &lt;code class="docutils literal"&gt;STRING&lt;/code&gt; (returned e.g., when using SQL calculations).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;adams-weka:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Weka Investigator:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;All textual output, like run information or models, is now read-only.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Save&lt;/em&gt; action now adds the new file to the &lt;em&gt;recent files&lt;/em&gt; menu.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fixed the notifications when attributes get checked/unchecked in the
Proprocess tab. Also fixed the &lt;em&gt;None&lt;/em&gt; button, as it behaved like the
&lt;em&gt;All&lt;/em&gt; one.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Added &lt;em&gt;fastrandomforest&lt;/em&gt; dependency.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;WekaInstanceDumper&lt;/em&gt; did not delete an existing file if buffer size
larger than 1 (and &lt;em&gt;keepExisting&lt;/em&gt; not checked).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;adams-spectral-dim&lt;/em&gt;: JCampDX readers now have an option to use the filename
(without extension) as the ID for the spectrum.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Changes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class="simple"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;GridView&lt;/em&gt; standalone now has an option for adding headers to the grid,
to better distinguish the individual cells in the grid (uses the names of
the actors).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;SequencePlotter&lt;/em&gt; received two more options:
-adjust-to-visible-data, -side-panel-width&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;When &lt;em&gt;checking before saving&lt;/em&gt; is enabled in the &lt;em&gt;Flow editor&lt;/em&gt;, any error
message gets output in the notification area now as well in order to be
able to jump to problematic actors.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;IntToString&lt;/em&gt; conversion now supports optional byte format strings,
e.g., to generate strings like &lt;code class="docutils literal"&gt;3,456.89KB&lt;/code&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;adams-spreadsheet:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;SpreadSheetMerge&lt;/em&gt; how has a flag to only keep a single instance of the
unique ID column in the output: &lt;code class="docutils literal"&gt;&lt;span class="pre"&gt;-keep-only-single-unique-id&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;adams-weka:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;WekaInstancesMerge&lt;/em&gt; how has a flag to only keep a single instance of the
unique ID attribute in the output: &lt;code class="docutils literal"&gt;&lt;span class="pre"&gt;-keep-only-single-unique-id&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;VotedImbalance&lt;/em&gt; now supports manual list of thresholds (prob of minority
class = # of resampled models) for more targeted resampling based on data.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Weka Investigator:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is now optional whether to sort the attribute names in the dropdown list
for the class attribute in the data/preprocess table.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The run information can be used as tooltip for result history entries now
(classify, cluster, attsel tab).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Classify/Cluster/Attribute Selection tabs now allow you to &lt;em&gt;Compare output&lt;/em&gt;
of several results side-by-side.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additions&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class="simple"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;LongToString&lt;/em&gt; conversion works like the &lt;em&gt;IntToString&lt;/em&gt; one, but on
&lt;code class="docutils literal"&gt;Long&lt;/code&gt; objects instead.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;adams-weka:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;MultiPLS&lt;/em&gt; filter operates on multiple Y values for the same range of
X attributes and places the results side-by-side. Applies the same PLS
algorithm to each Xs/Y combination.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Added the &lt;em&gt;adams-groovy-webservice&lt;/em&gt; module to &lt;em&gt;adams-addons&lt;/em&gt;, which uses
the &lt;a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/jwagenleitner/groovy-wslite"&gt;groovy-wslite&lt;/a&gt; library
for making SOAP and REST webservices easily accessible within Groovy
(NB: only client-side).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
