[Scaffoldhunter-news] Scaffold Hunter v2.4.0 released

[Till S. <til...@us...>]

Scaffold Hunter v2.4.0 has been published today. This release adds a new heat map view [1] and includes many design, work flow, and stability improvements. Starting with this release, we officially support MariaDB as a MySQL alternative. 

The heat map view [1] displays hierarchical clustering results in a new way. It visualizes the property values by colors in a 2D matrix of molecules vs. properties. Similar molecules and similar properties are grouped together with the help of clustering, such that molecular similarities which are correlated to property similarities can be easily identified by visual inspection. The heat map view was developed during the Google Summer of Code 2014 by Werner Sturm.

Please note that the current release breaks session compatibility and that sessions from previous versions might not be fully restored.
For a more detailed explanation of the changes made in this version see the changelog [2] or the SVN history [3].
