Re: [Swarm-Support] still looking for ant (termite) pile demo in swarm

[Rick Riolo]

paul,

thanks for putting this on your web site.
i think we'll try to move it to the wiki, if
we can get a bit of time.  (others could do that
if they have a bit of time, of course...)

the one i wanted was antsort.
its kind of a precursor to heatbugs.

(the other interesting, too, but very different.)

thanks,
