Thats it. For the chemical-structures project, you can send ghemical files, as each structure is minimized with MOPAC/PM3 or CML files. You can also send me an email with a list of compounds.

Re: [Blue-obelisk] Lanthanides and actinides in BODR
Hi, Here's a definition taken from the "Handbook of Chemistry and Physics": Lanthanide series (Lanthanides) - Rare earth elements of atomic numbers 57 through 71, which have chemical properties similar to lanthanum (#57). Actinide series - Elements of atomic numbers 89 to 103 analogous to the lanthanide series of the so-called rare earths.

[Blue-obelisk] KOpenBabel: a new building block for a chemistry-aware desktop
Hi, KOpenBabel is a graphical interface to Open Babel. It permits the conversion of chemical files (more than 70 file formats are supported). KOpenBabel is divided in three parts: - KOpenBabel3: a KDE3 interface - KOpenBabel4: a KDE4 interface - QOpenBabel: a Qt4 interface KOpenBabel3 and QOpenBabel are the most advanced projects. Translastions are available in french and german. All basic features are working (file conversion, format guessing). All packages are released under the GNU Public License. QOpenBabel has been successfully compiled on Microsoft Windows XP. The compilation on Mac OS X must be also possible, but no test has been done. You can find further details about this project on: http://kopenbabel.sourceforge.net/ Here's also an interesting hack for KDE: Place in your konqueror/servicemenus directory the file "chemical-cml-convert.desktop": [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 ServiceTypes=chemical/x-cml Actions=Convert [Desktop Action Convert] Name=Convert chemical file Exec=kopenbabel Icon=background This permits you to directly add a new item "Convert chemical file" in the Actions menu when you right-click on a CML file.

[Blue-obelisk] Chemical Structures: release v2.0
Hi, The new version 2.0.0 of Chemical Structures released today. This release has many new features and fixes: - the project contains 524 structures - the build system is based on CMake - the user interface has been improved by using a new html design - SMILES string is displayed on the molecule page - Python scripts are used to generate html pages (instead of XSLT) - name and formula indexes are available - many bug fixes - ... For an online version, visit the project home page: http://chem-file.sourceforge.net/ The last version can be downloaded on this page: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=169897 About Chemical Structures: The Chemical Structures project aims to provide a complete set of molecular structures. The version 2.0 contains over 500 structures of organic compounds. In addition to structural data, each file contains complementary informations, like molecular weight, boiling point, melting point or InChI code. Chemical Structures is part of the Blue Obelisk Data Repository.

[Blue-obelisk] From APBS/PyMOL to Jmol and the web
A message from the PyMOL list (many occurences of Jmol). Jerome -- Message transmis -- Hi everyone, Today the American Chemical Society's Chemical Biology published their second set of interactive structure figures (disclosure: adapted for Jmol by yours truly) in their March issue. These figures incorporate molecular electrostatic potential maps calculated with the APBS plug-in for PyMOL, written by Michael Lerner. This is thanks to Michael's ready cooperation and Bob Hanson's tireless development of Jmol. The figures are available at the following URL (subscription required): http://pubs.acs.org/cgi-bin/article.cgi/acbcct/2007/2/i03/html/ cb700012y.html The paper is Mechanistic and Structural Basis of Stereospecific Cβ- Hydroxylation in Calcium-Dependent Antibiotic, a Daptomycin-Type Lipopeptide, by Matthias Strieker et al. See figures 4 and 7. ACS Chemical Biology is leading the way in providing interactive 3D renderings of authors' structure figures, complete with custom controls that make use of many powerful aspects of Jmol and 3D visualization in general. If you'd like to support Chemical Biology's efforts, please spread the word to colleagues about the journal and their commitment to this technology. Thank to the PyMOL community for answering my posts so promptly and helpfully, making the MEP figures possible.

There is a logo available on: http://wiki.cubic.uni-koeln.de/bowiki/index.php/Logos A good way to promote Blue Obelisk would be to have a link to BO papers.

I'll add links to the software websites and to BO home page on this CLM system.
