Although completely different, GAMGI is inspired in programs as InsightII and Cerius2: http://www.accelrys.com/insight/ http://www.accelrys.com/cerius2/ which I used extensively during my PhD. The company developing this software is for scientific atomistic modelling software what M$ is for general desktop software. InsightII and Cerius are both: 1) applications to build, view and analyse atomic structures and also 2) a platform to launch a wide range of standalone applications covering many atomistic modelling topics, such as Ab-initio calculations and Molecular Dynamics simulations, Lattice Dynamics, applications to calculate electronic properties in solids, Monte Carlo techniques etc... At least at this stage I am only interested in the first part: I don't think it is a good ideia to integrate this kind of graphic interface with external standalone programs. <rant>They do it because it helps to obfuscate their stuff and get more money from researchers worldwide</rant>. >The debian-edu project is getting quite huge, and we try to include as few >custom packages as possible.

Thanks for your answer, regards, Carlos
