		All, 
 
I was surprised that datawarrior's clogP calculator treats a deuterated molecule differently than a protium analog. 
 
A simple example of benzene vs. hexadeuterobenzene: 
 
Total Molweight: 78.11 vs. 84.15 (which is correct) 
clogP: 1.66 vs. 0 (which is weird) 
clogS: -1.616 vs. -0.53 (which I guess comes from the clogP) 
Total Surface Area: 73.26 vs. 32.76 (I agree D is effectively smaller than H but I'm surprised by the magnitude) 
Relative PSA 0 vs. 0 (which is correct, although with polar molecules this number differs between the two...which likely comes from the Total Surface Area) 
 
Looking at other methods of calculating logP I see that they ignore the D vs. H and produce identical results. I would fix this myself but I figured this is significant an issue to raise with the community. 
 
Lastly, thanks to everyone involved in the development and support of DW: it's an outstanding piece of work. 
 
Best, 
Andy
