Dear Iurii,
As the resulting U are drastically different (>1eV),
what is the criterium that we should use to decide wich is the "good" projector 
for a given system?

Dear Sergey,
 
As Lorenzo said, yes this is expected. Ab initio U depends on the Hubbard 
manifold, i.e. which projector functions are used (e.g. atomic, orthogonalized 
atomic, Wannier functions, you name it). So it is absolutely important to 
report in papers which projector functions were used for the calculation of U. 
In particular, this is why one should be very careful when comparing U values 
from different papers. There are also other factors that influence the value of 
U (pseudopotentials, oxidation state, functional, one-shot or self-consistent 
calculation). We have some papers in preparation on this topic, which hopefully 
would clarify a bit more these points. You can also check this web page:
