Hi Ezequiel,

version: dev-2247: Final: r_work = 0.1753 r_free = 0.2040
vs
version: dev-2247: Final: r_work = 0.1663 r_free = 0.2017

look the same in a sense that if you 100 refinements each one starting 
with a slightly perturbed model you will get 100 slightly different 
refined models with both, Rwork and Rfree, varying withing about 1% at 
this resolution. Having said that I can postulate that r_work = 0.1753 
is the same as r_work = 0.1663, and r_free = 0.2040 is the same as 
r_free = 0.2017.

For some discussion see pages 75-77 here:
http://phenix-online.org/presentations/latest/pavel_refinement_general.pdf
and
"Improved target weight optimization in phenix.refine" here:
http://phenix-online.org/newsletter/CCN_2011_07.pdf

Now, before I proceed commenting, question: did you follow exactly the 
steps 1)-2)-3) that I outlined in my previous email? Otherwise it does 
not make much sense to compare results obtained using different 
refinement settings.
