MOPAC version 23.1.0 released!
This is the first open-source MOPAC release under an Apache license. The switch from an LGPL license is to encourage and facilitate more contributions from industry. This release also adds a version command to the recent API that will be used by MOPAC's upcoming Python wrapper library, mopactools.
Less visible are various bug fixes and portability enhancements. The standalone distribution is still not built with MDI support enabled, but the conda-forge distribution of this MOPAC version will have MDI support enabled and depend on the MDI library available through conda-forge. Several build options have been added (USE_C_MALLOC, FORCE_EXPORT_SYMBOLS) that allow MOPAC to be built using recent versions of the LLVM Flang compiler, which will hopefully enable MOPAC to complete its migration to LLVM Flang on conda-forge.
