Dear Octopus Users/Developers,
                I have a couple of quick questions regarding the 
implementation of the Perdew-Zunger Self Interaction Correction in Octopus.
Is a localizing transformation applied to the Kohn-Sham Orbitals before the 
Self Interaction potential is calculated? If so, what is the particular 
transformation that is used (Boys, Edmiston-Rudenberg etc ...) and where is 
it calculated? 
Thanks a million!
