CCTBX documentation questionnaire
by Dorothee Liebschner 14 Jan '20

14 Jan '20

Hi everyone, During this year's ECM computing school, it came up that the CCTBX does not have a lot of documentation. This seems to be a major reason why people don't use it, even if they would like to employ the libraries. We would like to find out which parts of the CCTBX are the most interesting for users. We certainly cannot provide extensive documentation for the entire toolbox, but we can see what we can do once we know the main areas of interest. So if you were in the situation of wanting to use the CCTBX but decided to stay away from it because the documentation was non-existent or obscure, please let us know by filling out the questionnaire below (it's anonymous): questionnaire CCTBX documentation <https://forms.gle/9RawJFfHyEvhCVVP7> Best wishes, Dorothee -- Project Scientist, Molecular Biophysics and Integrated Bioimaging Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory 1 Cyclotron Road, M/S 33R0345 Berkeley, CA 94720 Tel: (510) 486-5709 Fax: (510) 486-5909 Web: https://phenix-online.org

Fwd: Target platform with conda
by Winter, Graeme (DLSLtd,RAL,LSCI) 07 Nov '19

Hello all Looking at the commits relating to conda, what are the target platforms now? Looks like 3.7 is valid? I’m asking as it would be good to know what language features we can adopt without causing incompatible code problems. We’ve clearly nearly got up to date on Python 3 now... Do we have guidelines somewhere? Thanks Graeme -- This e-mail and any attachments may contain confidential, copyright and or privileged material, and are for the use of the intended addressee only.
