I've just finished giving a few lectures on join tree propagation, and
it struck me that some sort of animated demonstration of how it works
would be a lot more illuminating than the static descriptions I have
been using. I was thinking of something that eg showed the messages
being constructed and absorbed. Most packages that I have looked at
quite naturally hide this stuff away - but for teaching you want it
made explicit.

Before I recruit some unsuspecting student to produce said software as
a summer project, I though I had better check that there is not
something suitable already.

(Btw, I'm way too lazy to produce my own animations with PowerPoint or
StarOffice.)
