As I often say!!! The mtz format should carry point group and alternate SGs - then be upgraded when youknow the correct SG..

Re: [ccp4bb] pointless (1.2.0) and enantiomorphic SG's
Hi Kevin, I would say that the most useful place for this token will be in reduced-data land prior to getting phases - so for instance going into Phaser it could make a sensible choice about what spacegroups to test based on the accuracy information, likewise experimental phasing / dm programs. Once these programs have computed phases they will (most likely) be in a position to decide the correct spacegroup and write this out with some authority along with the phases. So what I am getting at is that you are unlikely to have phases without knowing what the right spacegroup is. Certainly, you are unlikely to have correct phases ;o) This cannot possibly cure the spacegroup naming problem, but it could certainly allow people to say what they mean when assigning some spacegroup information to a reflection file...

But before we all get carried away, a quick reality check is in order. This isn't an area I've thought about, but my limited understanding raises the following issues Given that an MTZ file contains a cell, an indexing of the data, and possibly phases involving a choice of origin, the use of an MTZ file immediately implies that some decision has been made about the spacegroup. Selecting a different spacegroup from a list of possibilities may involve reindexing, and/or changing origin/enantiomorph dependent properties such as phases and HLs. It would be possible for an MTZ file to say something like this: 'This file is generated assuming spacegroup X. Spacegroups X1, X2, X3, X4, X5 are also possible.'. It should also be possible to compute on the fly whether a particular column type needs to be modified for a different spacegroup. How will we present this in user interfaces? As a starting point, until a spacegroup has been settled upon, the user will need the option of picking the spacegroup after having selected the MTZ. This means potentially a reindexing step added to every single task - messy. As an intermediate, being able to change the 'currently selected' spacegroup as a separate task would be an improvement.

Re: [ccp4bb] pointless (1.2.0) and enantiomorphic SG's
Of course, you may need to re-index even if you have the right space group... Offering a selection of space groups compatible with a point group will not require reindexing. Some point groups of course permit reindexing, but one hope you have chosen a consistent set as you combine data sets into an MTZ file - pointless and the GUI both offer ways to check this. Phasing cannot be carried out till you have chosen a spacegroup, and any existing phase associated data should probably be weeded out as part of a Assign Spacegroup function.
