[Openmm-team] OpenMM status ?

[Vijay Pande]

Hi,

We are working towards a release, but it's possible that we could  
give you a preview copy if you're interested.  It would have a more  
restrictive license (you can't distribute the code and we'd have to  
talk about publication issues), but you could certainly check it out.

The main issue is that we would like to get our paper out describing  
OpenMM out before releasing the code, so that academics will have  
something to cite to give credit to the OpenMM team for their work.

Let me know if you think that might work.

Regards,

Vijay
