It sounds like good idea to use OGRE (btw, for those who don't know, OGRE is a 
3D engine library which uses OpenGL for actual drawing). But I think we can't 
use such a library for Kalzium because that would probably be too big of a 
dependency. Oh well, and I already coded for Kalzium pretty much what OGRE 
would have given us.

It's amazing how we seem to be so many working in the area of "Qt-based 3D 
molecule viewers". Yes, some joining of efforts is definitely in order if we 
don't want to duplicate effort too much.

Unfortunately I can't think much about this now (don't have much time for 
coding right now and the scarce time I have, I must use to finish Eigen, a 
math library that we plan to use).
