Wow, can I quote this in the response to the next review that I get back
where someone complains about the usage of Rsym? Believe me, I have
seen it twice!

Cheers,

Steve

Subject: Re: [ccp4bb] R-sym and R-merge


I doubt there ever was a universal convention. When I was young,
Rsym was calculated from the symmetry related reflections on a
single film. With precession photography there could be a lot of
them, but even the oscillation films often had many mates because
the crystal was aligned with a symmetry axes along the spindle
direction. Rmerge was the agreement of the measurements from
different films from, maybe, multiple crystals. I think the mates
in the Rsym calculation were a subset of those in the Rmerge
calculation. Since there was an Rsym for each film, the average
of all films was reported.

With today's data collection techniques I can't for the life
of me figure out a reason for having both Rsym and Rmerge.
