We haven't really seriously considered it, no.  One stumbling block is 
that Chimera really isn't completely open source yet.  We distribute 
the source to the Python part of Chimera but not the C++ part.  We plan 
on distributing the C++ part once we have organized it enough that 
outside developers would have a prayer of compiling it, but we haven't 
put in the work to do that yet -- always so many things to do!  The 
other problem is that we need to track our downloads so that we can 
report those statistics to our funding agency (NIH).  Perhaps fink 
allows for that, I don't know.
