<div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Hi Vignesh,<div><br></div><div>Thanks for the interest. There is some overlap between the code base on this project idea, namely we have some methods implemented already. I don't think we have any issues currently enumerating the methods mentioned in the project idea - feel free to create an issue!</div><div><br></div><div>I invited you to the OpenChemistry slack workspace.</div><div><br></div><div>Also, are you aware that DeepChem is also participating in GSOC this year as part of OpenChemistry? Be sure to check out their ideas (<a href="http://wiki.openchemistry.org/GSoC_Ideas_2019#DeepChem_Project_Ideas">http://wiki.openchemistry.org/GSoC_Ideas_2019#DeepChem_Project_Ideas</a>), perhaps they are more to your liking. That being said, of course I'm not discouraging you from looking into cclib, just raising awareness to make sure you find what's most interesting for you :)</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Karol</div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Feb 28, 2019 at 4:20 PM Vignesh Ram Somnath <<a href="mailto:vsomnath@student.ethz.ch">vsomnath@student.ethz.ch</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">Hi Karol, <div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">My name is Vignesh and I'm a Master student in Computational Biology at ETH Zurich.
