CCL: Open source contributions by pharma.

 Sent to CCL by: Steve Bowlus [chezbowlus^-^goldrush.com]
The Verloop STERIMOL program is available from QCPE (wrt the initial thread, Verloop developed and distributed the program while at Duphar; I ported it to the PC while at Novartis Agro). AFAIK all other programs including STERIMOL parameters are derivatives of Verloop's program. This includes a Sybyl SPL contributed by a worker then at Dow Agroscience. I believe the distribution package of the port includes Verloop's original code for the VAX, if you want to slick things up.

 On the subject of cheminformatics applications such as descriptor
 calculation, conformational search, QSAR, etc, I'd be interested to
 know people's recommendations for open source/free/cheap software in
 this area.  Is there anything that comes close to, say, MOE?
 
 For descriptor calculations JOElib is nice - there was a post on this
 list sometime back summarizing free/opensource descriptor calculation
 software.
 For QSAR modeling a good opensource program is R
 As for combining descriptor calculation & modeling you have commercial
 software, such as MOE and others. On the free/opensource side, PowerMV
 (http://www.niss.org/PowerMV/) is one possibility (which
 actually uses R
 as the backend).
