Dear Dr. Stephan, I'm glad to hear that the model space partitioning approach will be further developed. At the moment, i would like to write up the study of which i was showing the results - with 16 models better than 48. Until the new method is available: do you think a simple comparison of a single model out of the best 16 (the worst among them) against a single model out of the worst 48 (the best among them) would also show that those 16 models are superior to the 48? Please see the .pdf file for clarification. Matthias
