CCP4 v5.0 Acknowledgements

CCP4 relies on the contribution of programs and software from many protein crystallographers. We would like to thank all contributing software authors for their efforts and their generosity in allowing us to distribute their code, thus making it available to a wide community of users. Details of authors of individual programs are given in the corresponding program documentation.

A large number of people have also given their time and energy to test this version of the CCP4, and to report and fix bugs. We would like to acknowledge these people (in no particular order):

We would like to specifically thank SGI Japan for implementing support for Intel compilers under Linux on IA64 machines, and Tim Gruene for implementing the use of Gnu compilers in the FreeBSD build (Goettingen) and for testing under Macintosh and other platforms.

We would like to acknowledge the help of Jackie Potts and Gary Murray at CCLRC for their work on producing the new CCP4 licence document.

Finally, we would like to thank all those people who made contributions which are not explicitly acknowledged here, which includes all program authors who contributed new or updated versions of their software. CCP4 remains a collaborative effort and as such these releases would not possible without your help and assistance.

Thank you!
