Thanks Jose for the huge work! |

I've just had a look at the code, it is ok for me, Thanks a lot for the huge work! |

Thank you for all this work Jose! However I have to ask you one more thing, for practical reasons. The python tests, previously in the folder python/test and usually launched with the bash scripts test_all.sh and test_mpi.sh, do not work any more, because data files for the test folder have been moved. I know that this is a temporary solution, because as soon as possible they should be handled in a similar way as the NEST (CPU) tests, however until we have that solution it would be better to keep them working in the old way because they are used after every changes to the code to check that everything is working properly. For the same reason I ask you to put back the all the files that were in the folder python/hpc_benchmark/test/, i.e. in the subfolders data_check, data_check_dfi, test_hpc_benchmark_hg, test_hpc_benchmark_p2p, test_hpc_benchmark_wg, test_hpc_benchmark_wg_dfi, and the files in the Potjans_2014 folder. |

This is an updated version of the latest mpi comm branch from Bruno's fork.
I have cleaned up unrelated benchmarking scripts as well as old automake related scripts and deprecated c++ examples.
I also bumped the version to 2.0.0.
