Jumbo 5.0 and the CDK
I reported earlier that the CDK has been updated in CVS to use CML from the new Jumbo 5.0. The transition actually involved a lot of changes in the CDK, some I would like to address in the following comments. One thing is that CML write support (not reading!) uses the new Jumbo library which requires Java 1.5. Thus, if Java 1.5 is not available, then CML writing should not be compiled. This is how this is done.

Planet Blue Obelisk website updates
After requests I added yesterday more visible the RSS and Atom feeds for the Planet Blue Obelisk. They are linked in the menu on the right, and as alternative links to the document.

I also added a ‘Leave a comment’ link to encourage people to leave comments on items. Please do!

About JChemPaint's future and todays 2.1.5 release
Stefan has done an excellent debugging week on JChemPaint, while I have been late with a 2.1 release. Anyway, I’ve just uploaded a Java 1.4 compiled JChemPaint 2.1 series release. I was told the (reported) bug count is down to one, so I expect to see the next stable branch to be released soon (2.2 series).
