Hi, I agree with Wayne, just an additional point. The Java and Python versions are for the basic framework and the subroutine libraries. Those are indeed developed in parallel. If you are thinking only about the NMR analysis program, CcpNmr Analysis, that is what you would use as a replacement for NmrView or Felix, there is only one version. It is written in Python and C, with Tcl/Tk and OpenGL for the graphics, and it runs on all platforms. Other peoples programs might be in Python, Java, or other languages, and could still interface as long as they used the same XML files (or database). But there are no plans to make a Java version of Analysis. Another point - the documentation onthe web site is sometimes slightly behind the latest release. But the release in downloads is 1.18 now.
