But this is a separate issue that needs to involve BigTop community. Agreed that it would totally involve the BigTop community, and that that part is up to them.

I just kinda threw this out there but it's not a blocker for me -- whatever makes sense here and it's a good point raised by Eli that can probably be solved a number of different (easily solvable and documentable) ways :) Cheers, Chris ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Chris Mattmann, Ph.D. Senior Computer Scientist NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Pasadena, CA 91109 USA Office: 171-266B, Mailstop: 171-246 Email: chris.a.mattm...@nasa.gov WWW: http://sunset.usc.edu/~mattmann/ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Adjunct Assistant Professor, Computer Science Department University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90089 USA ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
