Recently the BNL Wire-Cell group had a discussion on WCT's
architecture and design.  The slides may be interesting to others.
&lt;/p&gt;

Releases 0.15, 0.16 and 0.17 (in prep) come with some changes worth
mentioning.  So, here we mention them.  At length….
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
Some changes are "breaking" and others provide new, better ways to do
things.  Many are cleanups which were needed for a while.  As 0.17 is
not technically cut, it may have additional changes.  So, sit back and
read about some of the improvements that you may not yet have learned
about.
&lt;/p&gt;

As Wire-Cell Toolkit is a toolkit, it does not force a top-down
structure starting from a &lt;code&gt;main()&lt;/code&gt; function.  But, it does provide a
layered top-down structure that applications may use after taking
their own choice of entry point.  This post talks about a layer of
this structure called a WCT "app".
&lt;/p&gt;

Of course, everyone is a fan of Wire-Cell.  This post isn't about you.
It's about a common pattern that is found in Wire-Cell data flow
graphs and how this pattern is realized at the WCT C++ level and how
to form it in WCT configuration.  
&lt;/p&gt;

The Waf-based build system for the toolkit is recently cleaned up and
expanded to support user packages.  For existing users this change
should be invisible.  This post gives the details of the change, what
to do when updates to the build system are needed and how to use it
for to build your own WCT-related packages.

Previously posts have discussed Singularity containers which were
introduced to provide easy development environments.  Recently, Docker
container descriptions have been developed to introduce Travis-CI
continuous integration to the Wire-Cell Toolkit.
&lt;/p&gt;

A new Singularity container is available which provides Kerberos
clients, kx509 and other stuff that is needed to download DUNE data.

A change is recently made to how WCT depends on ROOT.  This dependency
has been concentrated to a single, new package, not surprisingly
called &lt;a href="https://github.com/wirecell/wire-cell-root"&gt;&lt;code&gt;wire-cell-root&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.
