Overall anisotropic B-ref

[Mark Banfield]

Hi Savvas,

My 2 cents worth on this would be that if you have good data down to 20
angs., which I guess yours is if it's from a synchrotron (assuming no
overloads - if image plate data), then you should be using it all for
refinement anyway....... 

I would think this would be even more important, if not essential, when
using an overall scaling procedure.

Mark


ps- Does anyone think that the CNS example scripts should come with say,
a 20-15 angs. low resolution cut-off, rather than 8 or 5 angs. as for
XPLOR?? I guess this may have been thought of already......
