sieve-dev Sieve examples

[Matthew Knepley]

The best thing, of course, is to see a working example. Here are some,
admittedly complicated, pointers:

  a) PetFMM: http://barbagroup.bu.edu/Barba_group/PetFMM.html

      This uses Sieve constructs to manage data and has a manual and working
examples

  b) Blaise's code: This sets up an FEM problem using Sieve through F90,
which is a little painful, but short

  c) PyLith: http://www.geodynamics.org/cig/software/packages/short/pylith

     This is a very large code, but uses everything Sieve can do.

  d) The tutorial examples: As soon as I fix them, they will be the best
intro. The GUCASTutorialCode repo
      should almost work and shows how everything should go for making an
FEM code :)

What most experimenters take for granted before they begin their experiments
is infinitely more interesting than any results to which their experiments
lead.
