+===========================================================
+January 2019 Galaxy Release (v 19.01)
+===========================================================
+
+.. include:: _header.rst
+
+Highlights
+===========================================================
+
+**Revised UI Style**
+
+The Galaxy styling has been substantially reworked resulting in the largest visual refresh to Galaxy in years. It should provide a much cleaner and more consistent interface.
+
+.. figure:: images/19.01-revised-ui.png
+   :alt: Revised UI style cleans up the UI to be more consistent and clear
+
+**More Colourful Tags**
+
+Whenever you use dataset name tags (``#tag``), they will randomly be assigned a color. The colors are consistent; anywhere that tag with the same text appears in your history, it will have the same color. This should increase visual distinction between similarly shaped words, making it easier to track data flow in complex analyses.
+
+.. figure:: images/19.01-colourful-tags.png
+   :alt: Tags are now randomly assigned a consistent colour, helping you to distinguish between similarly shaped words.
+
+**Extensive Workflow Enhancements**
+
+The workflow editor now features new tool-like inputs which provide non-file data (such as numbers, text, true/false, colors) which can be connected to tool inputs. You are no longer restricted to only using files as inputs to tools!
+
+.. figure:: images/19.01-new-wf-inputs.png
+   :alt: Workflow inputs are available at the top of the workflow editor menu, under "Inputs"
+
+The workflow editor allows you to specify that specific inputs should be exposed, and can thus be connected to the new workflow inputs.
+
+.. figure:: images/19.01-new-wf-types.png
+   :alt: The new inputs can be assigned a data type
+
+**New Help Site**
+
+There's a new discussion forum to replace Biostars. It is accessible under the 'Help' menu on some Galaxies, or at https://help.galaxyproject.org
+
+.. figure:: images/19.01-help-site.png
+   :alt: Galaxy's new help forum which replaces biostars
+
+
+New Visualisations
+===========================================================
+
+`Aequatus visualisation plugin <https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1_KdwjbIyjUhdb_huAzOuI34693mciw_vXDCGLctKs9A/edit#slide=id.p2>`__ has been released which allows visualisation of gene alignments and gene family aggregations.

+   :alt: The Aequatus visualisation allows analysing gene family alignments
+
+New Datatypes

+- RMA6, the MEGAN6 read-match archive format (`Pull Request 6962`_)
+- fastg (`Pull Request 6987`_)
+- Mash sketch files (`Pull Request 7087`_)
+
+Builtin Tool Updates
+===========================================================
+
+- The grouping tool now allows you to replace non-numeric data (`Pull Request 6577`_)
+
+Release Notes
