It's not clear to me how to fit together the torch+torch+torch+pyro model with what Melt does today. If it's all input into a set of targets that coordinates it all, maybe that works. That's not something the targets really do today (apart from the whole loc thing). But even then, I assume the targets would still wrap executables, so getting that right is a good thing. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ New Year.
