IUCr CIF website upgrade

Dear cif-developers and comcifs folk The migration of content concerning the CIF project to the new IUCr content management system is almost complete. The new site is already visible at http://www.iucr.org/resources/cif but will become more obvious to visitors when I link it into the top-level site menu on Monday. At the same time I shall switch off the redirects to the old material on ww1.iucr.org. It's likely that this will result initially in some broken links; I'd appreciate being made aware of any as soon as possible, so that I can repair them. What I would particularly like the cif-developers subscribers to do is review the software resource pages starting at http://www.iucr.org/resources/cif/software Please let me know of any useful packages or applications you know of that aren't listed on this page, and suggest any reclassifications that you think might be useful. For the most part I haven't included general crystallographic software packages except where these contain utilities specifically designed to generate, convert or visualise CIF; but I'm very happy to add more upon request. A large subset of the packages referenced are also mirrored on the IUCr server as an extension of the software collection originally distributed with the International Tables Volume G CD-ROM. If you provided software for that purpose, please review the relevant pages to check that the latest version has been mirrored, and that the software redistribution licences are still appropriate. Once any initial teething troubles have been sorted out on the "new" site, I shall be very happy to hear suggestions for further developments of the IUCr CIF web pages. It has always seemed to me essential that the IUCr maintain this as an authoritative and useful resource. Best wishes Brian _________________________________________________________________________ Brian McMahon tel: +44 1244 342878 Research and Development Officer fax: +44 1244 314888 International Union of Crystallography e-mail: bm@iucr.org 5 Abbey Square, Chester CH1 2HU, England _______________________________________________ cif-developers mailing list cif-developers@iucr.org http://scripts.iucr.org/mailman/listinfo/cif-developers
