Thank you for the report on the Raspberry Pi being used in production - are you 
and your friends running just one storage node on the Pi, or are you also 
running any other software (second storage node, Tor, I2P, OpenVPN?).  My RPi 
consistently simply dies during the trial - no errors, it just... stops, but 
based on your feedback, I'll continue.

As I'm hoping to run some medium scale tests, I'm going to have to have 
something to generate a lot of nodes all at once, and I hate wasting effort.  
At this point, I'm targetting something more like the old terminal/3270/DOS 
menus and/or wizards - simple walkthroughs with questions to answer that can be 
used to create the files for an entire grid, or add to an existing grid's 
files, hopefully with some manner of "wrapper" (Tor, I2P, OpenVPN) capabilities 
available as well.

Does anyone have a good Python tutorial for experienced programmers?  My C and 
assembly used to be pretty good and my SQL is excellent, but I haven't picked 
up a new language in a long time, and I never dealt with parallelization much.

P.S. the Precise Puppy 5.7.1 VM at 768MB fails with the GUI, but succeeds at 
the command line with everything nonessential (cups printer daemon) disabled, 
so the critical memory limit for the trial is very close to there, OS overhead 
included.
