[FLASH-USERS] Documentation question

[Anshu Dubey]

Dear Chris,

There is a completely new algorithm for redistribution of particles in
FLASH3 which will be included in the Beta release at the end of this month.
We have also worked out the skeleton of the mapParticlesToMesh algorithm,
but that is not yet implemented.
