Chemical Mailing Lists (D-I)


DIBUG -- Biosym Users Group.

Description:
The DIBUG ("Discover, Insight, Biosym Users' Group") list, an unmoderated mailing list for discussion of Biosym products, is maintained by Biosym software users and researchers. Expected topics of discussion include, but are not limited to, queries about how to use features of the software, and how to solve scientific problems using the software. Although this list is administered by and for Biosym users, it is expected that the vendor monitors the list, and perhaps to respond to issues that may arise. The list is archived and archives are accessible via gopher and ftp.
Subjects:
General aspects of molecular modeling, molecular dynamics, ab-initio and semiempirical methods, meeting announcements, nmr and xray crystallography data evaluation, aspects of force field usage and application, efficiency of use.
