Hi Henning,
the piece of work we underestimated at the time of the statement is that
we need to rerun the full sequence to get this done. This means that we
need to implement this missing bit from analysis-20.

We have two alternatives:
	a) add the full sequences with a switch in IslBRecoilUser
	b) add the MC filtering in 'or' with our stream in SkimApp

I would say that maybe 'b' is cleaner, but none of us has experience in
this. Since Daniele's skimming has started we can stay with what we have
for this iteration of MC checks and develop the mising piece of code later
(but not too late, say in a couple of weeks).

Does this sound ok to everybody?
	ciao

	ric
