cctbx.xfel now runs protocol 6 by default, while the other protocols may be accessed by changing the program parameters described at http://cci.lbl.gov/xfel.

Half-width mosaicity and mosaic block size were fitted by the maximum-likelihood approach outlined in Appendix B. The values reported here are D eff and 1/, respectively, where is the average over all merged images.
