Dear All,
I would like to clarify the position of MSI regarding X-PLOR/CNS/CNX and to
clear up any misunderstandings that were reported in an email recently
posted to this list. MSI is strongly committed to the development and
enhancement of CNX. As you may know, CNX is the result of the merger of
the code basis of X-PLOR 98/98.1 from MSI and CNS from Yale. MSI has
continued to make regular releases of CNX with the first release CNX 2000
in early 2000, followed by the recently release of CNX 2000.1 For more
information about what was included in these releases please see the
following web page: http://www.msi.com/life/products/cnx/
We have developed these releases both through internal development efforts
and external collaborations. In addition, we are currently developing CNX
2001 which will include new functionality. We expect CNX 2001 to be
released in Fall 2001. CNX will extend further the functionality of CNS
and we will try to follow closely needs of crystallographic and NMR
community to develop new functionality in CNX according to these needs.
On MSI's website you can download a one-month trial of the current release
CNX 2000.1: http://www.msi.com/download/cnx/cnx_download.html (Academic
users can obtain this downloadable version for a nominal fee).
MSI remains committed to developing and supporting CNX. If you have any
questions/concerns related to CNX, please feel free to contact me at
cnx at msi.com
Regards
David Edwards
