wonderful. were you able to give feedback to jeff and the gang as ND about
this? would they release it as a "feature" of LAM-MPI in the near future.
right now, with the modified BNN arch, we have to contend with advanced
routing issues. not quite ironned out yet but possible. 

btw, i really admire your work on FNN and the bunyip people. we derived
much of our direction from your work. great work guys!
