Dear Judit Please allow me to apologise for my recent posting on the ccp4 bulletin board which may well have come across as slighting your own contribution. I had earlier made an innocent and good-natured comment on a thread that I felt was relevant. In fact it seems to me interesting how other fields handle data and targets. I am very sorry that I inadvertently helped the thread, which started with a sensible question, descend into a endless parade. I simply wanted to bring the entire affair to an END, and the word "pedantic" in your mail seemed one way to do it without mocking anyone but myself. In editing out some parts of my last response I omitted saying that of course it may have been me that had entirely misinterpreted the question. It certainly seems that I have misinterpreted the purpose of CCP4 bulletin board. I deeply regret my comments and wish to withdraw them all entirely.
I am very sorry indeed if the final transmitted version of my message was in anyway insulting to you, or Coot, or tools in Coot. This was NOT my intention. Coot is an absolute godsend. My best wishes Jeremy
