Thanks for the insight into how the system works. I see now why the procedings go out in January. I am not encouraged by the logic of the system. h-factors will probably help though. Acta D should improve a bit in 2006, since one paper alone from the 2004 procedings was cited 326 times in 2006

Do you have any data to support the implication that Acta F will have a lower citation factor than Acta D? Checked a web of sciences "Citation report" for a search with the year 2005 and "source titles": ACTA CRYSTALLOGRAPHICA SECTION F STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY "AND" CRYSTALLIZATION COMMUNICATI

Interestingly enough (or not as the case maybe), the CCP4 study weekend now goes out as the January issue of Acta D in order to try and raise the impact rating. Something to do with the scoring working on a calendar year. Charles On 19 Feb 2007, at 10:50, Kevin Cowtan wrote: J. Appl. Cr

J. Appl. Cryst. I have used it for things which I think need publishing, but are of more abstract subjects and less direct interest to the biological crystallography. However, politics and finances may dictate otherwise. Acta D has for some reason a rather poor impact rating, and J. Appl. Cr

Dear colleagues, I was wondering whether someone of you has reported/published new or improved crystallographic software somewhere else than Acta Cryst. It would be nice if you could share your experience with me. Topics might be: - quality of the journal - rapid publication - literate peers - ...
