I am not able to download fulltexts from aip.org from either Prague or
Grenoble networks... can you send me a copy? (Holy s**t, this whole
publication permissions are insane...)

I think the motivation for v' was clear, it is estimator for on-step
velocity (which never appears in leapfrog).

BTW1 I added the possibility of putting bibtex references to docs, as
well as $expr$ for inline math (which is replaced by :math:`expr` in the
process), so I hope documentation picks up.

BTW2 Is Jean-Francois' thesis available? It should be part of
publications section on the wiki. I am sure there was more articles
published recently and there is almost nothing there. Could people
somehow update it, for themselves, putting PDF on the wiki itself if
possible?

Cheers, v.
