The Computational Chemistry List (CCL) will come to an end. Jan Labanowski has been running it since 1991. Conference, jobs, answers to theory and code could be found there for so many years. #compchem, #ccl. Thank you so much, Jan.

Ein sehr persönlicher Nachruf auf den Freiheitskämpfer in der Diktatur, Freiheitskämpfer gegen Diktaturen taz.de/Buergerrecht... in der @taz.de

Bürgerrechtler Gerd Poppe gestorben: Freiheitskämpfer in der Diktatur, Freiheitskämpfer gegen Diktaturen

Sein Lebensthema war Freiheit. Dafür hat Gerd Poppe erst in der DDR-Opposition gekämpft, danach bei den Grünen. Ein persönlicher Nachruf.
