Release seems to be on track
The TOV Gallery is updated
     Previous one is too big because too much was uploaded
Need to link BH-NS collision to the gallery page
TwopuncturesX is having trouble
Cheng-Hsin says the Teukolsky-Lean test--fails on 2 procs, but not on 2 
threads
     Is output written in consistent order?
Cottonmouth - Split into 5 parts to obtain optimal, Zach asks whether 
these can run in parallel?
Zach says that makes the point that higher order often needs different 
splittings
Peter asked about the CPU performance
CanudaX review, Lucas has started, needs doc folder (as does Cottonmouth).
BHaHAHA review, Peter says it has a lot of good documentation
New Gallery--all done, ready to go
Boost--Roland has a script to reduce the tarball to 30M or so.
    Boost has its own build system, bjam. Hooked into make's parallel 
build system.
    Considered splitting it into multiple tarballs.
Newest boost doesn't have boost::math::tools::eps_tolerance, so can't 
use it.
