Dear Lachele & Emmanuel,

You will find many examples (submitted end of 2005) of such charge
derivation approaches in R.E.DD.B. (using different algorithms in MEP
computation & various fitting procedures).

See for instance: http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDDB/projects/F-1/ &
                       F-2, F-3, F-4, F-5, F-6 etc...

scf=tight is not required: This can save substantial cpu time when
building a force field topology database.

regards, Francois
