Hi Pavel, hi Viney,

you should NOT go back to data processing. Data processing should
result in unmerged data, including I+ and I-. The refinement program
(possibly under guidance of the user) should decide whether and how
data should be merged for refinement purposes. This decision should
also be reflected during data deposition when counting reflections,
however, it is best practice to deposit unmerged data. Whether or not
the PDB support deposition of unmerged data may be a different question.

Cheers,
Tim
