Alexander Schulz-Rosengarten 10.1 20 * See the [[KIELER Downloads>>doc:KIELER.Overview.Downloads.WebHome]] site for download details.
Niklas Rentz 1.1 21 * KIELER Pragmatics requires an installed Java Runtime Environment >= version 1.8.
cds 3.1 22 * The layout components of the Eclipse Layout Kernel can make use of the layout algorithms provided by the [[Graphviz>>url:http://www.graphviz.org/||rel="nofollow" shape="rect" class="external-link"]] library, which must be downloaded and installed separately. You may want to do so.

24 === Major changes ===
25
26 KLighD has now moved out of the KIELER Pragmatics Project and is now a standalone project hosted on GitHub and had a first release there. For more information on that, visit the official [[KLighD GitHub page>>url:https://github.com/kieler/KLighD||shape="rect"]].
27
28 Together with removing KLighD from this project, we went through the remaining plug-ins and features and moved or discontinued a few more. For more information on the individual elements, see the [[Discontinued Projects>>url:https://rtsys.informatik.uni-kiel.de/confluence/x/GoAX||shape="rect"]]:

30 * KIELER Editor for Graphs (KEG)
Niklas Rentz 5.1 31 * KIELER Ptolemy Browser (This project was also moved to GitHub, see [[kieler/ptbrowser>>url:https://github.com/kieler/ptbrowser||shape="rect"]])
32 * KWebS (This online service has also been shut down)
Niklas Rentz 1.1 33 * Piccolo Mirror

35 With the major part of KLighD being moved and discontinuing a lot of smaller projects, an interesting point is to look at what is left the Pragmatics project:

37 * Layout Configuration DSL
cds 3.1 38 * Formats plug-ins to convert between graph formats
Niklas Rentz 1.1 39 * Graph Analysis
40 * Syntheses and supporting code for graph structures
