If this isn?t the best point of contact for this question, could you help by forwarding me to someone else? I?m a Scientist at OpenEye Scientific Software. We have a cloud platform called Orion where our customers can run our software or custom software. One of the things we make available on Orion for our customers is public data and molecule sets, for example enamine, which they can search or analyze with our methods or their own. I work in our physics group which is largely focused on crystal structure prediction. So the reason I?m writing is that we would like to make the COD (or potentially part of the COD) available on Orion. I was searching your website today for a license or policy for redistributing the database (including crystal structures) and was having a difficult time finding one. Could you help point me to this information? Thank you for your help, Caitlin Caitlin C. Bannan Ph.D. Applications Scientist OpenEye Scientific Software, Inc.

It would be nice, however, if you would cite the COD [1] or provide references back to the COD where relevant. Also, see the following link [2] for the preferred ways of retrieving the entire COD dataset. Please do not hesitate to ask if you have any additional questions.

Could you help point me to this information? Just a tiny addition to Antanas's answer. The front page of the COD explains the data redistribution policy as "All data on this site have been placed in the public domain by the contributors". Thus all data in the COD should be considered public domain. Best wishes, Andrius -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
