[phenixbb] observed reflections error?

Dear Martyn,

the PDB should allow (better: enforce) the deposition of unmerged data.
This would overcome these problems because everyone can then check with
the program of their choice.

Best,
Tim

May have been sorted with mmCif categories - don't know about new deposition system with that format.
