Hi Vitaliy,

your results seem consistant with what Jakob, Vallery and I have
been looking at in Stockholm. However, we have also randomized
the points according to measurement error and noticed that, not only
is the width of the fitted stretch about 0.1 but the distribution
of fitted lightcurves is also biased by a comparable amount. The stretch
and date of maximum are tightly correlated, see attached figure.
The one thing that is not 100% "right" in our simulations is
that we did not use *exactly* the same template in the simulation
and SNminuit.
