Open Babel 2.1.0 Released

The Open Babel project is extremely proud to announce the release of Open Babel 2.1.0, the latest stable version of the open source chemistry toolbox.

This release represents a major update and should be a stable upgrade, strongly recommended for all users of Open Babel. Highlights include a new framework for molecular mechanics force fields, a framework for canonical, unique atom numbering (i.e., an open source canonical SMILES implementation), new scripting interfaces in Ruby and Java, enhancements to the developer API, several highly-requested file formats, and many, many bug fixes and improvements.

Many thanks to all the contributors to Open Babel including those of you who submitted feedback, bug reports, and code. This is a community project and we couldn't have made this release without you.
