 * The parameters `--max_memory` and `--max_time` are now validated against a regular expression [[#793](https://github.com/nf-core/tools/issues/793)]
   * Must be written in the format `123.GB` / `456.h` with any of the prefixes listed in the [Nextflow docs](https://www.nextflow.io/docs/latest/process.html#memory)
   * Bare numbers no longer allowed, avoiding people from trying to specify GB and actually specifying bytes.
+* Finally dropped the wonderful [cookiecutter](https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter) library that was behind the first pipeline template that led to nf-core [[#880](https://github.com/nf-core/tools/pull/880)]
