Hello all, 

I'm actually back to this list after nearly twenty years. Nice to see this 
package is still actively maintained!

It will take me a while to get back up to speed, but my needs are the same as 
they were back then when I published some docking work using the code:

I use openbabel to convert pdb files to mol2 adding bond orders and protonation 
states for proteins. My code then uses the bond orders to assign forcefield 
parameters for simulation purposes. 

I did a preliminary conversion of lysozyme:  obabel -p 7.0 -ipdb 
6lyz_no_wat.pdb -omol2 >! test.mol2

Seems like there are a number of incorrect bonds formed. I have a very old note 
that openbabel often failed to assign carbonyl oxygens a double bond. In 
principle, knowledge of the amino acid 3-letter code should solve the bonding 
problems.

Anyone worked on this aspect of openbabel in the past?
