[CP2K:275] QMM: CELL and PERIODIC group

[Luca]

Hi Teo,
Ok, CELL and PERIODIC in QMMM section have same behavior and same
meant
of CELL in SUBSYS and PERIODIC in MM section.
In an isolated system I understand different set of cell parameter.
I do not understand when I want to simulate (NVE or NPT) MD for one QM-
solute (ab-initio organic molecule) in MM-water in a periodic box. In
this case I should have same cell parameters and same rules for PBC in
both system QM and MM....

Thank you
Luca
