Dear Nelly, All the information is available from the Chimera home page and its links, see http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/index.html For academic, personal, and nonprofit use, Chimera can be downloaded from the web site free of charge, see http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/licensing.html The download contains all the features; there are not really separate modules. In a few cases other groups have created their own plug-ins that work with Chimera, which you would have to get separately from those groups, and there are a few "experimental" features under development, but those will eventually be merged with the main download. I am not sure what you mean by maintenance, but we have new releases every few months, try to answer questions, and try to fix bugs that are reported. Best, Elaine ----- Elaine C.
