Armel,
I wish to remind you of the fact that democracy (see above) equals to
discussion where everyone could present his/her opinion.
Being a Frenchman you should (or ought to) follow Voltair's "Though I
don't agree with you I will do my best to help you to present your
opinion" (sorry for a rather free translation, in my case from a language
I hardly know to the language I can (sometimes) understand.
Your suggestion to create a new group (again, see above) is neither
reasonable nor quite fair. I wonder why have you forgotten the times when
people presenting their Rietveld refinements were considered by many
(single-) crystallographers as fools and recomended to do something more
"reasonable". I am afraid you are approaching their position, though still
very slowly.
It is my privilege to invite you all to continue this discussion on a
more friendly basis during our micro-symp in Prague in August.
Best,
Lubo Smrcok
