Hi everyone,
During this year's ECM computing school, it came up that the CCTBX does not
have a lot of documentation. This seems to be a major reason why people
don't use it, even if they would like to employ the libraries.
We would like to find out which parts of the CCTBX are the most interesting
for users. We certainly cannot provide extensive documentation for the
entire toolbox, but we can see what we can do once we know the main areas
of interest.
So if you were in the situation of wanting to use the CCTBX but decided to
stay away from it because the documentation was non-existent or obscure,
please let us know by filling out the questionnaire below (it's anonymous):

Best wishes,
Dorothee

Dear Colleagues,
as a result of the increased frequency of wildfires in California the power company is taking steps to reduce risk under certain weather conditions. This entails shutting down electricity to regions that are experiencing dry windy conditions. They are predicting that Monday or Tuesday this coming week (September 23/24) might meet their criteria for a shutdown in the Bay Area. Hopefully this is just a worst case prediction and nothing will happen. However, there is a possibility that the Berkeley servers will be down for some time during that period (duration unknown). This will affect:
- The Phenix web site (http://phenix-online.org/)
- The DIALS West web site (http://dials.lbl.gov/)
- The CCI web site (http://cci.lbl.gov/)
- The Structural Biology Technology Portal (http://technology.sbkb.org/)
Bug reports and emails requesting help should be queued and we will receive them once the servers are back online. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Cheers,
Paul
