Agenda

dxtbx comparator pseudo-classes

dxtbx#302 found dxtbx comparator classes in dxtbx.datablock. These classes (SequenceDiff, BeamDiff, ScanDiff, GoniometerDiff, DetectorDiff) should really be functions. Given they are in datablock they could move to dxtbx.model.experiment_list, but possibly something like dxtbx.model.compare makes more sense?

(This is independent of dxtbx#288 above)

AP: GW to add comment to that PR, rediscuss when ASB is present.

Next meeting

Thursday, March 25th, 4pm UK time, 8am PDT.
