[sdpd] XRDU:RIET: Third edition of the IUCr Computing Commission Newsletter on-line

["L. Cranswick" <l.m.d.cranswick...@dl.ac.uk>]

The third edition of the IUCr Commission on Crystallographic
Computing Newsletter is now available as an Acrobat PDF (~5.2 Meg
and 70 pages) at:

  http://www.iucr.org/iucr-top/comm/ccom/newsletters/2003jan/


Its main intended audience is that of crystallographic programmers;
people who like to look under the bonnet of the programs they are
using; and those interested in crystallographic programming.  There
are also general articles of possible interest to those who use
crystallographic software as a black box, and/or interested in topics
surrounding crystallographic computing.

The next intended issue is scheduled to appear around June/July 2004.
Submission of articles concentrating on crystallographic algorithms and
their implementation in source code for this next edition are welcome.
Articles on the history of crystallographic computing are also welcome.
