CCL: Release of AmberTools25



 Sent to CCL by: David A Case [dacase1(0)gmail.com]
 On behalf of the entire Amber development team, I am pleased to announce the
 release of AmberTools25, which is a suite of programs that supports
 biomolecular simulations.  Please visit https://ambermd.org and look at the
 "AmberTools25" and "Download Amber" tabs.
 In addition to our usual annual release of updated AmberTools code, we have
 revised the way in which we distribute Amber itself (which contains the
 the pmemd program and a few other utilities.)  Amber is only updated every
 even-numbered year, but we have re-packaged Amber24 as a stand-alone
 tarfile, which can be built independently of AmberTools.  This should
 simplify the process of installing Amber on high-performance computing
 platforms.
 If you already have an Amber24 installation, there is no need to re-do that
 with the new package.  But if you are new user, or plan to install Amber on
 a new cluster, it's probably easiest to download the new tarfile.
 Special thanks to the group of developers who spearheaded testing of
 AmberTools25 (you know who you are!).  But we know we can't test on every
 possible environment, so please report problems to the Amber mailing list.
 The conda installation may provide an attractive path for many users.  See
 the "Download Amber" tab for more information.
