        This is a very general question. Why is this modeling suite called Rosetta?

          I asked this at RosettaCON a few years ago.  It’s just named after the Rosetta Stone.  The original developers hoped Rosetta could translate protein sequences into structures the way the Stone translated ancient languages.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta_Stone
