PyNN API

All system tests now passing for NEURON backend in parameter_space branch

Changed translate() from a classmethod to an instance method, to allow dynamic creation of translations dictionary for STDPMechanism

in the parameter_space branch, the revamp of the projection/connection API is mostly complete for the NEURON backend

In the parameter_space branch, changed the implementation of the Tsodyks-Markram synapse

invalid: We found out that the problem only appears when mpi4py is not installed. Probably there should be a nicer error message in that case or some more documentation on the page for parallel simulations. Sorry for the noise!

owner changed

The minimal reporocuder shows above error if run with mpirun -np 2 python ./test_init.py

Patch that fixes the problem

Minimal reproducer
