hi min, brian and fernando,

i just checked out the newparallel branch from the github repo. a few
questions:

1. is this the best place to look at documentation?

http://minrk.github.com/ipython/parallelz/index.html

(unfortunately, i could not compile the docs on my 64-bit osx machine
without wx.)

2. is dag support already available in newparallel? i.e., can i add tasks
with dependencies before executing them? if not, where is the best place for
hacking this in?

3. fernando: is your workflow branch mergeable with this? the ability to
spawn and shutdown engines as needed (especially in the context of clusters
such as SGE) has come up for discussion on the nipype side a fair bit in the
last few weeks.

4. is there a good place to read about the parallel architecture?

cheers,

satra
