Hi, just a short remark concerning the production. As we mentioned in one of the vub-recoil meetings the mX spectrum unfolding needs the full signal MC (b->ulnu) samples (this includes events without a Breco candidate, which were not written out by default in the signal MC that is currently used by e.g. the mX-q2 analysis). I do not really know when you will actually be producing signal MC, but when you do, it will be good if for the b->ulnu signal MC (with generic other B) all events get written out.
