My colleague and I are seriously considering abandoning the 'bare bones'
approach to parallel software development.  We are VERY interested in learning
about the experiences of others with respect to HELIOS and/or TROLLIUS.
Specifically,
	1. are the C and/or FORTRAN compilers any good? (i.e. do they take
	   good advantage of the transputer hardware, such as implementing
	   something equivalent to the Occam PAR and ALT statements?)
	2. How reliable/useful are the runtime environments.  Do they have
	   parallel debuggers, and if so, are they any good?
	3. How work is involved in getting them up and running on UNIX systems
	   with attached transputer engines?
	4. Finally, we need e-mail addresses and/or phone numbers for the
	   vendors.
Any and all help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!
