 Hello,

 > I think I got them all this time.

 You did.

 > An incidence structure is group divisible iff its dual is resolvable so
 the is_resolvable method can be used to determine if the IS is group
 divisible.  The question is if we find that a IS is group divisible, what
 do we want to do.  Do we want to store the groups as a part fo the IS?

 From your question I wonder if we are talking about the same thing. I was
 simply saying that we have a function `is_group_divisible_design` that
 tells you if an incidence structure is a group divisible design. Is that
 also what you have in mind?

 In particular, I do not understand how that could be equivalent to finding
 out whether the dual is resolvable: we have a `.is_resolvable` function,
 but it is rather slow.

 No, those commands look okay. It must be something that happened before.
