Hi Paul,

I think this is a very good call as CONECT records are notoriously unreliable. 
Many PDB files don't have them and many programs don't update them when you 
change atom numbers. Even in annotated PDB entries there are many problems with 
those. It's better to forget about them altogether and focus on the mmCIF 
format.

Cheers,
Robbie

Because I have never thought them necessary. Using SSBOND, LINK and residue 
dictionaries seemed to me to
cover the bases for which CONECT would be used.
