Comment (by hinder):

 Yes you are correct - only 8 thornlists. I was using the checkout on my
 laptop which has some additional arrangements added.  We also have some
 Cactus thornlists (http://svn.cactuscode.org/www/download/thorns/) though
 these are no longer linked from cactuscode.org, as far as I can tell.

 I agree about allowing thornlists which contain non-ET thorns, but we
 should try to modify the thornlists to only include ET thorns if possible.

 It would be nice to be able to run Cactus on a parameter file and have it
 give a good guess about the memory needed.  This would need to be done on
 the head node before qsub is run, which means Cactus would need to be able
 to run there.  It might not be possible to run Cactus on the head node due
 to mpirun not working there.  So for the purpose of this ticket, I would
 include the approximate size of the run in the parameter file.

 What does "TAGS" mean in your example?
