[petsc-dev] TSBASICSYMPLECTIC

[Lisandro Dalcin]

If the plan is to eventually have a family of sympletic integrators, then I
think this is a really bad name.

We should follow the pattern elsewhere, and have a main TSSYMPLECTIC type,
and subtypes TSSYMPLECTICBASIC etc, and in command line we ask for -ts_type
sympletic -ts_sympletic_type basic.

Or, if there are no plans to have a family, then why to name it BASIC in
the first place?

PS: Not an expert in the field, feel free to hammer me about my ignorance.
