All,
over the last few months, the multigrid implementation has seen          
significant rewrites, with much of the work done by Baerbel Janssen. The 
goal -- now achieved -- was to finally fully support multigrid also for 
continuous finite elements on adaptively refined meshes (uniformly refined 
meshes and discontinuous elements have worked for a long time). 

As part of this process, step-16 has been rewritten and now solves the same 
problem step-6 solves, just with a multigrid solver. Take a look at
  http://www.dealii.org/developer/doxygen/deal.II/step_16.html

There is still work to be done. In particular, there are still a few things 
that don't seem to work for vector-valued problems (along with a few 
things where I think we don't quite understand the correct mathematical 
formulation). But we're working on that :-)

Cheers
 W.
