The doors are open to our laboratories for you to check out our new features! These are features that have not yet been evaluated by long-term testing, as for core KNIME features, but are still stable enough to give you an idea of what future KNIME functionality is going to be like.

Feel free to test it, but remember that you are dealing with experimental stuff! Feedback from you would be great, as we want to use it to improve features and add the functionality you need to get to grips with your real-world applications. This feedback might be in the form of:

• bug reports
• feature requests
• example workflows
• documentation
• code contributions

The first feature hot from the labs is the text processing feature: a mixture of natural language processing, text mining, and information retrieval. You can find it under:

http://labs.knime.org/textprocessing

We look forward to hearing from you! And be sure to register to the blog's RSS feed in order to be informed about irregular software updates of the listed projects.

P.S. You can use your KNIME.org account for the labs section as well.
