Hi all, CDK 1.4.0 is released.
I created a usual overview of changes since the previous release (1.3.12) in my blog: http://chem-bla-ics.blogspot.com/2011/07/cdk-140-changes-authors-and-reviewers.html It does not describe the changes between 1.2 and 1.4. That will come in the next weeks. In fact, I would like to ask everyone to blog, email, or publish otherwise in two or three paragraphs the one changed feature you like most of the 1.4 series! Additionally, I like to encourage every project that is based on the CDK (and this list of getting considerable indeed!), to send a post when the tool has moved to CDK 1.4.x. In fact, I was even thinking about making an annotated list of CDK-based projects, indicating where to get it, what license, who did it (and/or distributes it), and what CDK version they are using (or even changed/extended, like several did). Also, I like to point out that this 1.4 series has really been a community project! Just look at the list of contributors (these statistics are biased: it includes many patches from Stefan Kuhn, Mark Rijnbeek, Arvid Berg, and Niels Out that were merged, when cleaning up the CDK-JChemPaint patch two years ago; double kudos to these four developers for their hard work on the renderer patch!): 500+ Egon Willighagen 124 Rajarshi Guha 108 Gilleain Torrance 38 Syed Asad Rahman 32 Stefan Kuhn 23 Mark Rynbeek 11 Arvid Berg 8 Jules Kerssemakers 6 Miguel Rojas Cherto 6 Jonathan Alvarsson 4 Andreas Truszkowski 4 Dmitry Katsubo 2 Onkar Shinde 2 Saravanaraj 2 Uli Köhler 2 Nina Jeliazkova (IdeaConsult Ltd) 1 Brian Gilman (Wingu) 1 Carl Mäsak 1 Jonty Lawson 1 Julio Peironcely 1 Peter Odéus (AstraZeneca) 1 Scooter Morris 1 Stephan Beisken Impressive, not? Major contribution organizations who effectively funded this release include the European Bioinformatics Institute (via Christoph's and Asad's teams), and the affiliations of me and Rajarshi. I annotated a few names in the above list with the company they work for. While minor contributions, we value very much these contributions from commercial entities. I also want to point out that the SMSD patch includes code that originates from Rich Apodaca's MX code base (MIT-licensed) which is merged in too. Thanx to Rich to his important work on Open Source cheminformatics! Over the next weeks, I will try to figure out the important additions since the second CDK paper, so effectively since the 1.0 series, and over this summer, I plan to start drafting the third CDK paper. Well, that's it for now. I am looking forward to your reviews! Egon -- Dr E.L.
