Vistrails is gone, VCDAT is in
We dropped support for our GUI-based version and are replacing it with a browser-based version: VCDAT
At the moment VCDAT is still in beta and is distributed separately see:
https://github.com/CDAT/vcdat/wiki
and
https://github.com/CDAT/vcdat/wiki/User-Installation
Support for Python 3
All CDAT packages are now available for both Python 2 and Python 3
Improved documentation
readthedocs and jupyter notebooks
cdms improved esmpy support with masking
Using esmf 7.1
