Dear Members of the SasView Users List,
We hope you have had a productive start to 2025.
We would like to take this opportunity to inform you that we have just released an update to SasView, SasView 6.0.1, available as usual through the SasView website<https://www.sasview.org/>. This is a minor release but fixing some bugs<https://github.com/SasView/sasview/releases/tag/v6.0.1> in 6.0.0., including several associated with plotting.
For those that prefer to build their installation from source (eg, Linux users), SasView is now also available through Flatpak<https://flathub.org/apps/org.sasview.sasview>.
We regret we are still unable to provide a conda distribution for SasView 6.x, but work is in progress to develop wheels available on PyPI. This work is anticipated to be part of the next release slated for June 2025.
In other news, SasView contributors from the Magnetic SANS community are organising two events later this year which may be of interest to some of you:
* The first is a mini-symposium on “Magnetic SAS Data Analysis – State-of-the-Art and Future Improvements”<https://www.sasview.org/2025-01-24-magsas-symposium-at-icns25/>, which will take place during the ICNS-2025 conference on Wednesday, July 9th, 2025, at the Bella Center in Copenhagen, Denmark;
* The second is a SasView Contributor Camp to be hosted by TU Munich, Garching, Germany between November 11-18th, 2025. This will largely follow the format of the hugely successful Camp in Delaware<https://www.sasview.org/2024-02-09-contributorcamp-12-report/> last year, but with more of a focus on the needs of the Magnetic SAS and allied communities (ie, those SAS users producing more complex data than isotropic powder patterns).
Thank you for your continued support! And, as ever, if you would like to get involved, please see https://www.sasview.org/contribute/ for further information.
