Sep 1, 2025September 2025 performance summary for molgenis/molgenis-emx2 focused on delivering user-facing catalog features, hardening data integrity, and simplifying publishing workflows. Key features delivered include a new Organisation Catalogue Type and Display, enhancements to demo data and ontology, and an improved home page presentation of organization catalogues for clearer data discovery. A CSV validation improvement was added for Variable Mappings repeats to enforce formats like 1,2,3 or NA, strengthening data quality in catalogues. Directory publishing was streamlined by removing network aggregation logic and deprecated Networks.parent_network validation to reduce maintenance burden. The EMX2 Python Client received a targeted NA handling fix to treat only truly empty strings as NA, improving data fidelity when fetching data.
