Ok this is all good stuff.
This is the specific article I thought as a list we could turn into a
coherent doccument.

There is also the beginings of an MPI programming guide which although
I'm not so sure it's gentoo specific in any way it certanally would be
auseful thing to anyone setting up MPI etc.

AFAIK MPI Programming == HPC clustering
Which is an entirely different subject from HA-clustering.
Of course also a very interesting topic, but has relatively few links
with HA.
Maybe a split in HA-Clustering, HPC-clustering and large-scale sysadmin
with gentoo.
The large-scale sysadmin is overlapping for both, HA can be usefull in
smaller setups, HPC is seldomly used in small setup AFAIK
May would be fine I should hopefully have time in June to check
through it thouroughly if it's nearing completion.
I've made a tentative start unfortunatly I'm not sure how much we can
take directly from the current howto on the Gentoo page I don't know
who own's the copyright.
Suggest we pick one of the usual free licenses (maybe the same as the
gentoo documentation project uses ?)
If we use the stub as a sandbox and perhaps the doccument that arises
from it we could call the "Gentoo Clustering Handbook".
I think we should determine topic first (see above)
