- Yes, my apologies on the name mistake. OI is Open Interface by Solbourne.
- OIt (what I was talking about) is Open Interface Toolkit by Neuron Data.
- And, of course, Galaxy is everything else :-)
-
- I actually looked at Solbourne's OI about two years ago when it was in beta.
- It was quite impressive, but we decided to go with an intrinsics based toolkit
- instead, mainly because the company was new at this GUI stuff.
