I've gone through the entire list at 
http://wiki.jmol.org/index.php/Merge_10.9_-_10.3 and in each case 
carefully looked at the diffs and have either made the change, discarded 
it as irrelevant, or marked it as "LATER", meaning maybe sometime later; 
not critical. Nico has done a lot of this as well.

And, yes, there were some substantial things I missed -- some nice 
changes to Polyhedra scripting that I only did in 10.3 and then forgot 
about; some clean up of the autobonding. In the process, I took the 
opportunity to clean those up a bit more, and because it caused me so 
much grief, I've moved some default values from ModelManager to 
StyleManager and added a Logger.info() flag whenever settings are 
changed. I'm wondering why 10.9 but NOT 10.3 had a major addition to the 
application bond preferences dialog. I've left those in, figuring that 
more control is better, but I'm a bit curious as to why the difference.

All the important readers now support crystallographic extensions -- 
adding spacegroup and unitcell specifications to the load line. This is 
really quite fun. I ran into some interesting issues with protein PDB 
crystal structures, and now I feel I've definitely got those bugs worked 
out. Still, some more exercise with protein crystal structures would be 
nice. Note that in the case of PDB and mmCIF files we are reading the 
Cartesian-to-Fractional coordinate data directly. I note that this 
matrix APPEARS to have an error in 1CRN (specifically). I've studied 
this now all day, and I can't see any other possibility. It's the sign 
of one of the terms. Since it appears to only be 1CRN and not other 
CIF/PDB files I've looked at, I think it must be a CIF/PDB error. I've 
sent a note to RCSB.

So as soon as people are satisfied that the CML and RES readers are 
doing what they are supposed to do, I think we are ready. The 
documentation is up to date; I've been updating it as I've modified.
