Chemic seems to work with apparently the same results in mkii and mkiv.
I am using this with mkiv without being too demanding for the moment...
This package may have a small user base, but it appears to be rather
unique. In order to progress, it must not sleep but be put to use.
Note, however, that I am not a chemist and so do not write very many
chemical structures and formulae.
The big problem for scientific writers is that publishers
at very best will accept plain LaTeX. A notable exception
is the American Physical Society who developed revTeX,
a LaTeX package well suited to their publishing style.
The American Chemical Society will accept plain LaTeX.
Often, other scientific publishers as for Word!
Also, we need to contribute more pages like
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Posting_on_arxiv.org
Indeed, I had terrible problems submitting texts to arxiv
as their system identifies the source as TeX but fails
to process it.
