Hi Citizens:

I have an invoice for a PyMol academic 3 year subscription through March 31, 
2011, invoice #2794.

When I enter my subscription access credentials into the pymol.org web server, 
nothing happens.

The source code is no longer at http://sourceforge.net/projects/pymol/files/

Bummer.

A directory appears that is labelled "files_are_at_pymol_dot_org"

The link at http://pymol.org/dsc/, which accepts my access credentials, but 
does nothing, has the following text at the bottom:

Open Source Project and Code
PyMOL on SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pymol/.
PyMOL Source Code on SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pymol/develop.

I went in circles a couple of times before I realized I was lost in the woods.

In fact, the only source-code I can find for pymol is on the fink mirror, for 
the OS X fink package I have been maintaining, i.e.,

http://distfiles.master.finkmirrors.net/pymol-1.3-src.tar.bz2

Funny thing is, when I use this "open source" code to build pymol, and fire the thing up, I get the 
attached splash screen that says "Open-Source PyMOL(TM)" [sic] and then goes on to explain what I 
just built is an "Executable Build available only to PyMOL Power, Casual, and Developer Users who have a 
valid license ..."





Now, admittedly, I'm not the brightest crayon in the box, but all this this has 
really left me scratching my head.

I'd sure hate to be led off in handcuffs by the international copyright police 
for building Open-Source PyMOL(TM).

Ironically, I even paid for it.

Or so I had thought.

Peace and joy,

Bill
