• 10000 CDK commits!

    It has happened. Just a few minutes ago. The 10000th commit to the CDK source code repository. Miguel was the lucky(?) one. From our IRC channel #cdk on the irc.freenode.net network:
  • Why chemistry-rich RSS feeds matter...

    Peter wrote up an item on Nick’s CrystalEye’s RSS feed, and I have been enthusiastic about chemistry-enriched RSS feeds for some time. CMLRSS has the chemical data inline in the RSS; see DOI:10.1021/ci034244p, the use of CMLRSS in Chemical blogspace described here and here, and the CMLRSS support in Bioclipse.
  • My PhD Thesis: in color and grayscale

    Wednesday is my regular day off from my metabolomics work, and today I am finalizing the layout of my thesis, which I’ll defend on April 2. The print version will feature grayscale images with some of them in color too. However, the PDF version that will end up in our university repository should have color prints. So, while halfway creating suitable grayscale versions of the image, I realized I was not doing it properly. I was replacing the images; so, I lost the color version. Not good.
  • Java Server Pages with CDK functionality

    Setting up interactive web pages can be done in many way. Java Server Pages are just one of them. They are quite similar to PHP pages or Ruby, and combine plain HTML (and likely any other output) code with fragments of code; Java source code in this case.
  • Be in my Advisory Board #2: JChemPaint development

    No idea who the 22 persons are who were willing to join my advisory board, but they advised me to finish the JChemPaint work Niels worked on this summer:
  • CDK Literature #4

    Fourth in the CDK Literature series. Really, a follow up on #3 which I wanted to get out, even though not really finished yet. But, after 3 comes 4, not 3b. Maybe 3.1, but that suggests at least 3.2-3.9 too, let alone full R (that was supposed to the space of all reals…) I’ll stick to positive non-zero integers. #1 and #2 are still available too.
  • CDK Literature #3

    Third in a series summarizing literature citing one of the two CDK articles. See also #1 and #2.
