Hi,
I have finally managed to redo all weights to estimate the errors
according to the requests of CLEO (and therefore Gibbons).
The technique and the results are summarized in
http://babar-hn.slac.stanford.edu:5090/hn/aux/rfaccini/ISL/shape_function.html#SF
I have used the PRL fit, with a small fix to the reweighting.
My bottom line is that using their SF parameters our measurement should be

Vub=(5.04+/-0.30(stat)+/-0.28(sys)+0.61-0.041(SF)+/-0.26(pert+1/mb^3))10^-3

compared to our published value

Vub=(4.62+/-0.28(stat)+/-0.27(sys)+-0.041(SF)+/-0.23(pert+1/mb^3))10^-3

A part from a shift in central value I would conclude that only our upper
error has significantly changed by the amount they claim [Gibbons
calculates
Vub=(4.79+/-0.29(stat)+/-0.28(sys)+-0.060(SF)+/-0.33(pert+1/mb^3))10^-3
]


Please have a look at the numbers and the procedure. Otherwise I would
suggest to Gibbons to use this result for his miniReview
(although it is unclear if there is any PB related issue ...)
