Jmol was originally developed by Dan Gezelter, Notre Dame, South Bend as a MacOS version of XMol... Later Bradley took over as project leader, and 1.5 years ago I became leader... but since then Miguel has done so much, that practically he is leading the v10 branch, while I leaded the v6 branch... which ended in release v9...


Currently Egon and I are the main developers. We
occasionally get assistance from others, especially in foreign language
translations. We are always looking for other developers.


Indeed. We need help in, at least, these areas:

- - crystallography (space group symmetry implementation)

In case you are interested, I have written a program (Visual Basic) that implements all possible space groups and reads xtal files. I don't really know what else is out there, but this might be useful for error checking or even algorithms. See http://www.stolaf.edu/people/hansonr/mo



- - animation (interpolation and property (e.g. energy) vs. frame plots)
- - internationalisation (some Jmol parts are yet untranslatable...)
- - interoperability with QM programs
- - analysis plugins (tools that extend the Jmol viewer with tools used
   in specific research fields, e.g. a plugin interfacing with Platon to do
   report certain analyses)
- - documentation!
