Hi thereI've added something graphical to make things clearer to what Daniel has been writing in the wiki. For now, it's in a separate page
https://github.com/salilab/imp/wiki/Y%27s-addition but I think it needs to be merged with these two pages https://github.com/salilab/imp/wiki/Getting-started-as-a-developer https://github.com/salilab/imp/wiki/A-proposed-commit-model-for-IMPattached, you will find the graph, which I didn't know how to include in github.
comments welcome! Y
