Kenneth,
I have another hypothesis. There are >300 subscribers
to the Rietveld mailing list, I guess. How many will easily
change their favourite Rietveld software by TOPAS ? Let us
say 10 or 20, no more, even if TOPAS does the talking.
This point cannot escape to a good commercial boss.
Thus, the potential clients will be big managers/deciders at
Glasgow or Denver, without a frozen brain like us, and
without too much experience in powder diffraction, not
reading the Rietveld Mailing List, preferably, and sensitive
to shiny GUIs ;-).
Half joke, 100% provoc.
Armel
PS : the software name is TOPAS, not TOPAZ, in the
Glasgow abstract.
