[StarCluster] status of HPC instance type

[Brian O'Connor]

Hi,

I've used StarCluster and found it to be extremely easy to use and
helpful for my research.  After doing some prototyping I'm ready to
switch to the HPC instance type.  I was wondering if support for this
instance type is available in git and how long until StarCluster
supports it officially.  I saw a post from Justin in September that
indicated it was being worked on:

> I'm planning on adding EBS-backed AMIs to StarCluster and Fred Rotbart
> has submitted patches that handle starting/stopping EBS-backed instances
> including instances of the new cluster compute type (which you'll be
> *very* interested in by the way given that you do lots of MPI). Stay tuned.

Is this to a state that I can start playing around with it?

Thanks for your help!  Great project!
