D0Raw2sim Certification

Our current plan for certifying d0raw2sim is to compare the output of reco on zero bias events processed through two different paths:

path1: run reco directly on the zero bias events. process output with RecoCert.
path 2: take the zero bias events. process through d0raw2sim. use d0sim to overlay this onto single neutrino events. put this through d0reco. process output with RecoCert

then, overlay the RecoCert histograms. If d0raw2sim is working correction, the histograms should be identical (remember, there is no simulation involved here, just conversion from one format to another).

Please note that currently there is no certified version of d0raw2sim. Due to manpower constraints, we don't expect to have one soon.

p17.03	tracking a little worse than p14.d0raw2sim.00. also, looks like noise in calorimeter is not handled quite correctly	here
p15	calorimeter seems sick in p15. You can see this in the certification plots. Other detectors the same as p14.d0raw2sim.00	here
p14.09.00	geometry in CFT changed slightly. tracking does not look quite as good as in p14.d0raw2sim.00	here
p14.d0raw2sim.00 on farms	check to see if its being moved correctly to the farms	here
p14.d0raw2sim.00	useable for most physics. Remember that the signal will be processed correctly. This just shows if there will be any errors in the processing of the pileup information. Forward muons clearly sick, but pileup is probably not an important effect for the muons. Still some problems with CFT/SMT, but we think that these problems are smaller than the problems with traditional overlay (which of course has problems too!)	here
