Thanks for your work on this.  I'm a bit offline-ish this week and thus
a short notice.  If I where you I'd point d/watch to Github and package
the latest upstream version.  May be some Daniel or Michael might
comment here.  Moving the packaging from SVN to Git might be also a
sensible thing to do but DebiChem team might raise their option as well.

As long as we have no sign that the scripts work with Octave as well and
thus are usable with free software I personally would not care about
this.

Thanks for working on this.  Just ping if something needs uploading.  If
someone else might take over the sponsoring that would be nice - please
respond to the according mail to let me know.

Kind regards

     Andreas.
