Re: Bug#658299: RFP: madness -- Multiresolution Adaptive Numerical Environment for Scientific Simulation



Hi,

any takers on the below?  Seems to be a pretty awesome piece of code
(see e.g. [0]) and one of our prospective packages might get enhanced by
it, but I currently have too much on my plate to package this.
