Britton has just submitted a pull request to bring LightCone and
LightRay up to date with the current parallelism strategy. He asks a
few questions that others on this list may have thoughts on; I will be
leaving mine in a comment on the PR.
Thanks, Britton!

Subject: [yt_analysis/yt] Modernized LightCone and LightRay (pull request #214)
To: matthewturk@gmail.com
A new pull request has been opened by Britton Smith.
brittonsmith/yt has changes to be pulled into yt_analysis/yt.
https://bitbucket.org/yt_analysis/yt/pull-request/214/modernized-lightcone-a...
Title: Modernized LightCone and LightRay
Major changes to the infrastructure supporting the LightCone and LightRay:
1) The LightCone and LightRay generators have now been switched over
to the new SimulationTimeSeries so that they can now, in principle be
used with other simulation codes. This will require other frontends
to add code similar to what's
yt/frontends/enzo/simulation_handling.py.
2) Both the LightCone and the LightRay are now parallelized using the
parallel_objects function, so they can be used much more flexibly with
multi-level parallelism. This also removes the direct mpi4py imports
from LightRay.
3) LightCone and LightRay, along with there supporting superclass
CosmologySplice, have been moved to
yt/analysis_modules/cosmological_observation.
This code has been heavily tested and retains all pre-existing
functionality, plus a few more things that will be mentioned in the
documentation and cookbook recipes that will be updated shortly.
Before accepting this PR:
1. Are people happy with the new location:
yt/analysis_modules/cosmological_observation? I believe that all of
this code belongs in a subdirectory together but that was the best
name I could come up with.
2. The old EnzoSimulation (yt/analysis_modules/simulation_handling)
class still exists, but it is no longer a dependency for anything, and
is totally replaced with the new EnzoSimulation in yt/frontends/enzo,
which is totally superior. Can I remove this now or should it be
deprecated and scheduled for removal at a later date?
