John,
	We have developed a native MPI for the T3D here at EPCC. The work (6 mths)
was funded by CRI. We finished at the beginning of December and have a number of
local projects running with it. We have provided Cray with a copy of the software.
How it is made available to Cray users, support arrangements etc are still to be
sorted out. If you are interested in it, you should let your local CRI bod know.
You can also email t3dmpi-requests@epcc.ed.ac.uk (this is n't a mailing list)
which will reach the projects manager at EPCC. He can then keep you up to date.
You can also email any technical questions to the same address and we'll do our
best to answer them. (However with New Year fast approaching the reply may be
a little delayed. :-)

,Kenneth.
