I'd like to get wider distribution of the new interface for Jmol. I'm sure it is not perfect, but I'm getting no feedback with it as an optional .spkg. I'm pretty sure it works as well as what is in Sage now, so although it needs input and work, I would like to argue for including it, so that we can start getting feedback.
