May I suggest that the mpi FAQ is extremely inadequate?  I am just a poor simple
engineer compared to the mpi developer crowd, but by comparison with peers in 
my field, I am "the computer science guy".  I need to get mpi running on a
NoW, develop a code, etc....... so I start by reading everything I can on MPI
and downloading it and reading the README file...

p4? Chameleon? What's this?  Geez, shouldn't something so basic be covered in
an FAQ?  Guess not.  If I can't figure out the readme.install file, how am I
(or anyone else in an applications field) going to be able to move from PVM to
MPI?  Opinions anyone?
