Hi Jason,

I was wondering how scikit-fmm is proceeding. Does it have extension
velocities yet? I noticed that you had added an extension velocities
example in the git repository, but nothing has been released yet. Do
you think it is at a stage that I can can use FMM and extension
velocities from within FiPy? I just recently finished a wrapper for
LSMLIB and I want to include scikit-fmm as an alternative choice. I
hope to compare them for efficiency using the FiPy examples and see
what needs to be updated/fixed in both packages.

Cheers
