Hi All,

Totally agree. You cannot imagine how much we were, and are still, 
"attacked", to launch the Crystallography Open Database in 2003. We are 
now the top fully free open database in the world. Lets construct a 
fully opened library and periodicals collection, entirely on academics 
time since we anyway give our time out to publishers.

sincerely

daniel
