[buster-discuss] New release of the Global Phasing BUSTER and Pipedream software

[Gerard Bricogne]

Dear BUSTER users,

We are pleased to announce a new version of our software containing
several improvements and fixes to BUSTER and Pipedream.

* Added support for map completion within BUSTER, i.e. handling of
  missing reflections for 2mFo-DFc electron density map
  computation. In addition to the standard 2FOFCWT/PH2FOFCWT
  coefficients (no completion) two types are provided:

  (1) Anisotropic DFc completion for all reflections classified as
      observable by STARANISO (2FOFCWT_aniso-fill/PH2FOFCWT_aniso-fill).

  (2) Isotropic DFc completion for all missing reflections to the
      high-resolution limit of the observations
      (2FOFCWT_iso-fill/PH2FOFCWT_iso-fill columns).

* A reflection data mmCIF file (BUSTER_refln.cif) will be produced by
  BUSTER ready for deposition - containing not only input amplitudes,
  figure-of-merit, test-set flags and other results from refinement,
  but also the different map coefficients described above.

* Some initial support for refinement against electron-diffraction
  (microED data) is now provided via the "-M ElectronDiffraction"
  macro.
