  1. References for the CDK, Blue Obelisk, and Bioclipse.

    It is also gratifying to see the
    advent of open source movement in cheminformatics on the Internet, as advocated for
    example by the Blue Obelisk Group (40) and witnessed by collaborative projects like
    Chemistry Development Kit CDK (41), Jmol (42), Bioclipse (43) and several others.


    I like to point to reader to the following papers regarding references 40, 41, en 43.
