• The BCA spring meeting was held last week at the University of Kent, Canterbury. At the meeting Sir Roger Penrose delivered a fine Bragg lecture entitled "Quasi-Crystals and Non-local Assembly: A Quantum-Theory foundations issue?" Explaining the origins and showing experimental realisations of his tiling, building up his arguments to discuss some fundamental tenets of Quantum theory.
• The GSAS homepage at CCP14 has been given a revamp www.ccp14.ac.uk/solution/gsas/

Monday 2nd April 

• The Chemical Database Service has been given a stay of execution to the end of this month (April) CDS database

• The following redirections are in place and CCP14 mirrors removed:-
  • All ILL diffraction group related websites have been redirected to www.ill.fr/dif/
  • Balls and Sticks and programs related to www.toycrate.org

Wednesday 28th March 

• Please be aware the Chemical Database Service will terminate 31st March! CDS database

• A new link - Outside World - has been added. This contains links to other crystallographic services including the ICSD

Wednesday 14th March  The following has been updated

• The mirroring of the Fox website on ccp14 is no longer available because Fox is now a wiki site. A redirection is in place to the original Fox website http://objcryst.sourceforge.net

• Henry Barwood's website has moved to
  http://spectrum.troy.edu/~barwood/XRDFilmTutorial.htm and mirrored at this CCP14 mirror.

• Bob Von Dreele has uploaded the latest version of GSAS for both Windows and Linux. The Linux version now matches the Windows version. Click on the links to either read about the new changes here or to download

• Jose Espeso has kindly supplied a format conversion program from XY to GSAS for Mac OS, Linux and Windows called XY2GSAS. Feel free to email the author <espesoji@unican.es> for any help or to report problems.

• Reminder: a good general purpose X-ray conversion program is Mark Bowden's ConvX especially useful for converting Bruker RAW data into GSAS, XY, etc - Windows only.
