Dear MODELLER users,
I guess we did create a little bit of confusion. I hope this will clarify it:
MODELLER 5o is the latest MSI, commercial version of MODELLER. MSI generally only adds the license checking code to MODELLER and does not remove any functionality. So the MSI version can be run as a standalone program using the TOP scripts, not only from the InsightII or QUANTA interface. At the moment, the latest MSI version is 5o, given to MSI in the summer of 1998 and released by MSI in early 1999 (there were internally versions 5a, 5b, ...). The latest released academic version is 4. The reasons for us not releasing an academic version 5 include my desire to finish and change a number of things before releasing a new academic version. MSI, on the other hand, simply wanted to have the latest MODELLER when the time came to have a new InsightII/QUANTA version. It took us longer to do what we wanted because we were focusing on genome scale modeling aspects, not on modeling of the individual proteins. But, we will be releasing the academic MODELLER within two or three months from now. We will call it release 6, so there won't be an academic release 5. It still needs some work on the manual and a few relatively small optimizations ...
Best wishes and thank you for using MODELLER, Andrej
