IIRC, RR decided a while ago to do away with all meetings, and, understandably, people were highly pissed off about that. So, people founded SMART and I suspect they're now more well-known than RR.

As for the differences in the doctrine and tools and philosophy, I don't know enough to comment. I have only had experience with SMART.
