About
Reading the PyMol list for years, we users noticed a trend: person A would ask a question, person B would answer and then two months later person C would ask the same question again, but now to get the answer everyone had to search for it. We have a growing corpus of knowledge; it's now time to organize it.
This site came from acknowledging that.
