Dear All,

DIALS 1.5.1 for synchrotron data has been released - full release notes at

Key changes:

*** CRITICAL ***

dxtbx: Converted models into C++. Bug fixes for HDF5/Eiger files to correct a 
previously inverted axis. In some cases sign of anomalous signal was inverted.

Request: examples of data from beamlines with Eigers to allow more thorough 
testing - was spotted with data from Spring8

More info: https://github.com/dials/dials/issues/324

*** IMPORTANT ***

dials.align_crystal: numerous bug fixes and simplified output
dials.find_spots: Correctly smooth histogram, #317
dials.geometry_viewer: display of crystal basis vectors, and added fast, slow, 
normal vectors to panels in display
dials.image_viewer: new mask generation tool; performance improvements
dials.import: full specification of meta data from phil parameters; can now 
import data with different detector etc into same file
dials.index: improvements to nearest neighbour analysis used in max_cell 
estimation (optionally choose between linear and logarithmic histogram binning)
dials.reciprocal_lattice_viewer: reciprocal unit cell display
dials.refine: equal shift constraints

*** XIA2 ***

xia2.report:
 - use merged intensities for calculating second moment statistics
 - include xtriage report;
 - include analysis of distribution of multiplicity in reciprocal space
 - add plots of completeness and multiplicity vs resolution
 - optionally choose cc_half_method=sigma_tau
xia2.multi_crystal_analysis: add stereographic projection plots for crystal 
orientation analysis
