ravanan 0.2.0 released

[Arun Isaac]

Hello everyone,

I am pleased to announce the release of ravanan 0.2.0!

ravanan is a Common Workflow Language (CWL) implementation that is
powered by GNU Guix and provides strong reproducibility guarantees.
ravanan provides strong bullet-proof caching (work reuse) so you never
run the same step of your workflow twice, nor do you have to keep track
of which steps were run and with what parameters: ravanan remembers
everything for you. ravanan captures logs from every step of your
workflow so you can always trace back in case of job failures.

ravanan is packaged for Guix. If you are on a recent enough Guix, you can

Hope you find it useful! Patches and feedback welcome: please mail them

Ravanan had a section in the 2024 activity report of Guix-HPC. So, this 
news seems to be a good candidate to be mentioned in the 2025 version of 
the report 
https://gitlab.inria.fr/guix-hpc/website/-/blob/master/drafts/activity-report-2025.md 
!

We would love if you could you send us few words (merge request if you 
have an account, patch, or even raw text) about this new version of 
ravanan and its use cases!

Contributing to the upcoming Guix-HPC activity report is on my mind.
I'll send in a patch next week, if that's ok. By that time, I should
have made a release of ccwl as well and will mention that on the report
too.

Happy New Year!

Thanks,
Arun
