This release of `isatools` implements new sets of study planning (sample and assay planning) classes, and generation of ISA template content based planning parameters. Additionally, ArrayExpress network I/O (retrieving MAGE-TABs and ISA-Tab from ArrayExpress database) has been implemented, and a report generator for analysing study groups in ISA-Tab created.
A major refactoring of the ISA-API package structure to clarify conversions from network importers has also been done.
