HELLER" Subject: CCL:More Software/Databases for Review To: "chemed-l" Cc: "chminf-l" , "chemistry" , "orgchem" 26 July, 1994 Subject: Computer Software for Review As the Software Review Editor for the ACS Journal of Chemical Information and Computer Science (JCICS) I often get software for review in the journal. Since I sent a note out yesterday two additional packages have arrived. I am looking for someone who is willing to review these software/databases products. In return for the review you get to keep the software. The review should be completed in 1-3 months. The length of the review is 4-10 double spaced typed pages. Sample reviews can be found in most of the recent issues of JCICS. Please try to give me some (short) reason to choose you over another person. DO NOT SAY YOU WILL REVIEW ANYTHING I HAVE AVAILABLE. Messages with such replies are trashed! I have tried this approach for about the past three years and it is working reasonably well. (REMINDER: For those who haven't finished your reviews of software sent months and months ago, this last sentence does not apply to you!) As a result, I am continuing this new method to find reviewers using this e- mail/user group system. I reserve the right to abandon this if it is a problem, or inappropriate. I will not notify people if I have found a reviewer. If you don't hear from me within a few days I have chosen someone else to review the particular package. As I get many, many, (too many) replies to this message, please do not respond after 27 July, 1994 (Wednesday), as I am sure the software will be gone by then. I can be reached on Internet (SRHELLER@ASRR.ARSUSDA.GOV). PLEASE BE SURE TO INCLUDE AN STREET ADDRESS, PHONE, and FAX NUMBER!!! (I send the software by Federal Express.) Without this information I WILL NOT consider your request. Steve Heller The two additional packages I now have are from Megalon: 1. ChemStructure for Windows. It is a structure drawing program. 2. Compounds for Windows. A database of about 27,000 organic compounds with some two dozen types of numeric and spectral data associated with each compound. ---Administrivia: This message is automatically appended by the mail exploder: CHEMISTRY@ccl.net -- everyone | CHEMISTRY-REQUEST@ccl.net -- coordinator MAILSERV@ccl.net: HELP CHEMISTRY | Gopher: www.ccl.net 73 Anon. ftp www.ccl.net | CHEMISTRY-SEARCH@ccl.net -- archive search http://www.ccl.net/chemistry.html | for info send: HELP SEARCH to MAILSERV Hi Steve, You probably don't remember me, Bert Hoveling, from Melbourne, Australia. I did 4 months with Bill Milne at NIH in 1976. I would be interested in this project you are involve in, if i can be of any help. I am also interested in anything else of interest in Chemical Information Systems, particularly relating to the hypertext protocol on Mosaic etc. Sorry to hear you are not well, and hope you improve soon. Could you please let me know what Bill is up to, and his E-mail address, if that's O.K. All the best, and I wish you well. Regards, Bert.
