What is the latest status on this? It sounds like the options are:
1. Use '.' as a separator. 2. Use '-' as a separator. 3. Use '..'as a separator. 4. Use '--' as a separator. 5. Put output files into per-implementation subdirectories.
Was there any consensus on which of these to go for? I think my own preference was for either '-' or '.'.
The other question was how the change should be made, either:
1. As a new parameter, defaulting to the old behaviour. 2. As a new parameter, defaulting to the new behaviour. 3. As a change in behaviour. 4. As one of the above 3 along with a metadata file describing the simulation.
It seemed like most people preferred 1 (or 4), is that right?
