@scopatz, I'd like to get your opinion here (of course @rwcarlsen feel free to jump in as well) -- I know that you've incorporated direct files into projects before (e.g. argparse in pyne). I'm curious about how we should consider:
- file naming; should it be named the same or should we differentiate?
- documenting adjustments; right now it's really difficult to see what changes were made. where/how do you suggest we document these changes? it looks like spirit (and perhaps boost in general) doesn't really do much documentation.
