@whedon invite @richardjgowers as editor
@richardjgowers has been invited to edit this submission.
@Kevin-Mattheus-Moerman this is a plugin for PyMOL. PyMOL isn't free software (but is widely used freely under academic licenses), so I'm not going to be able to review this. I'm not sure what the JOSS policy on free plugins for non-free software is.
Dear @richardjgowers and @Kevin-Mattheus-Moerman,
PyMOL is a molecular visualization software originally created by Warren Lyford DeLano as an open source software. According to the original author, by 2009, almost a quarter of all published images of 3D protein structures in the scientific literature were made using PyMOL. However, when Dr. DeLano prematurely passed away (https://www.nature.com/articles/nsmb1209-1202), PyMOL was acquired by Schrondinger, Inc on the condition that it would remain available as an open source software (See January 8, 2010 announcement on https://pymol.org/news.html?; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PyMOL; https://pymol.org/2/#opensource).
According to Schrodinger’s open source PyMOL repository, PyMOL is licensed under BSD-like license (https://github.com/schrodinger/pymol-open-source#license). Consequently, in addition to commercial and academic licenses, open source versions of PyMOL are available in the repositories of the main Linux distributions (https://pymol.org/index.php/Linux_Install). Additionally, this open source version can also be installed on Windows (https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Windows_Install) and macOS (https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/MAC_Install), or independently of the OS using Anaconda. Thus, PyMOL remains one of the most used protein structure viewers.
Although we developed user friendly PyMOL plugins for KVFinder-web, as well as parKVFinder, both softwares are open source initiatives and can be used independently of its PyMOL plugins. Perhaps in the future, plugins of other less used molecular visualization softwares could be developed for KVFinder-web service. Of note, KVFinder-web users through the open source PyMOL can take full advantage of the web service plugin, similarly to the ones using commercial/academic/non-profit licenses.
Kind regards,
Hello @zgcarvalho, thanks for your interest in JOSS and the explanation above.
Regardless of the question about the open-source nature (or otherwise) of PyMOL, the editorial board is going to review your submission to see whether it is in scope for JOSS at all. It appears that your submission is a web-based wrapper for a different software package, ParKVFinder, which was previously published about in SoftwareX.
ParKVFinder would itself certainly be in scope for JOSS as standalone research software, but I am not sure that KVFinder-web meets our requirements. We will get back to you once the editorial board has had a chance to discuss.
@whedon query scope
Submission flagged for editorial review.
Hi @zgcarvalho. Unfortunately the editorial board has determined this submission to be out of scope. The functionality of the tool is too narrow and a fair amount of the code is for UI logic. Overall, the amount of functionality contributed by this package is too small at the moment. We are willing to reconsider the package in the future if the scope is expanded. Thank you.
