[Chimera-users] thermal ellipsoids

[Eric Pettersen]

Hi Mike,
	After comparing with ellipsoids from various other programs I now do  
see some differences.  I've open a Trac ticket (#7446) for this  
problem so that you will be notified of any progress on the issue.  I  
should have some kind of resolution in the next day or three.  If you  
wanted to send along some examples of expected output I would be happy  
to check any fix I make against them.
