    Hi all, 
    
    I've commited a few changes to BRAT: 
    
    2001-09-01  Christian Holm Christensen  <cholm@hilux12.nbi.dk>
    
    	* modules/digitize/BrSiDigModule.cxx:
    	The digitisation using calibrations rather than the pseudo numbers in
    	the ASCII parameter file is now fully implmented.  It turns out, that
    	using the calibrations gives far more consistent (with real data)
    	numbers than using the parameter file.  Use the method
    	UseCalibrations(kTRUE) to turn on this feature. Perhaps this kind of
    	thing should be implemented for all detectors.
    
    	* TODO: Added an entry.
    
    	* README: Redirect attention to the guide, which is up to date.
    
    	* doc/guide/bratguide.tex:
    	Bumped the version number, due to latest addition by Flemming.
    
    	* doc/guide/bratguide.tex:
    	Added a few references and made references to Flemmings and Kris'
    	email addresses.
    
    Since non of these really affects anything, I didn't tag.  
    
    Flemming, I like your introduction in The Guide.  Especially the last
    line! LOL. 
    
    Note the expansion of BrSiDigModule (and earlier similar for
    BrTileDigModule) - I've found that extremely useful to have this
    possiblity. 
    
    I'd like to forewarn you, that I'll soon update the centrality modules
    in BRAT.  After some rather tidieous investigations, we've come to the
    conclussion, that cutting in the deposited energy in the TMA and SMA
    rather than the multiplicity in those detectors, gives a very good
    centrality determination.   I'll post an analysis note outlining the
    investigations as well as arguments to support the conclussion.  
    
    This will affect the modules Br[Tile|Si]CentModule,
    Br[Tile|Si]CentCalModule, BrGlbPackage, and the data classes
    Br[Tile|Si]Cent will be modified (or disappear all together, I'm not 
    sure yet).  
    
    This will _not_ affect the module BrMultCentModule, and the method
    used in that module.  However, the upcoming BAN should give you enough
    information to make an educated choice of centrality method.  
    
    Oh, and I think an independent centrality determination based on the
    ZDC and BB data would be a really good idea (any volunteers?). 
    
    Yours,
