Eric,
If I recall correctly from a seminar conducted by John a couple of years ago in
Boston, he mainly (if not exclusively) uses TMax RS at various dilutions in
automated Jobo processors.  He said the TMax developer gave better mid-
tones; however, he did make explicit distinctions between the "regular" TMax
developer and the "RS version."  I don't know what the difference is, if any,
but he prefers the RS.

Best regards,
Alan
