Re: Kalzium looks promising

It seems to me that all these molecule databases would be a perfect candidate for the GHNS (Get Hot New Stuff) feature. It seems a bit unnecessary to include everything in the chem world in kdeedu. It's already big enough as it is.

Sounds like a good idea, I'll forward it to Carsten if he hasn't already read your comment. I guess we could make it so that the first time the user launches the mol viewer, he gets proposed to download molecule files.

Well, *some* molecules should of course be shipped with Kalzium. It's just that all these databases are terribly big, and not especially useful for everybody.

Sure, we'll ship at least a few molecules. By the way, the whole gzipped archive weighs 300 kb.

So maybe a good behavior is to show by default ony a few mols, and then put a button in the GUI saying "download more molecules".

Well, we need to think more about this.
