Hi Paul, Nice suggestion. It seems logical to me, though I would probably go with RDKit instead of RD as the prefix. It's not a small change for people who are using the C++ libs without cmake (I wouldn't change the names of the cmake projects, so if you're using the RDKit cmake stuff nothing changes), but I suspect there aren't that many of you guys.
@Gianluca: what do you think? Anyone else have an opinion? -greg On Fri, Aug 19, 2016 at 1:15 PM, Paul Emsley <pems...@mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk> wrote: > > Greg, > > RDKit is becoming increasingly popular and is getting picked up by third > parties, including > the Linux distros.
