Rules: Divide the grid along the dotted lines into pentominoes (five-cell regions) so that no two pentominoes of the same shape (including rotations/reflections) share an edge. A cell with a letter in it must be part of the pentomino shape normally associated with that letter. A pentomino may contain 0, 1 or more given letter clues.

I admit, I had to do quite some trial and error, before I established something like a solid base to start from. But then it went quite smoothly. Good to know that this can be approached much more analytically. Thank you for the puzzle.

Nice. It took me a while to notice the break-in but it was pretty smooth after that.
