Dirac Compatibility Matrix

[edit] Aim
These tables try to represent the current status of integration of the schroedinger code into end user applications. Don't put 'yes' in a cell unless there is something easy to use, like binaries or straightforward compilation.
[edit] Disclaimer!
If I have misrepresented your work - sorry! Please update the tables to reflect the actual status.
Add new encoding or playback applications if I have missed them. I don't know much about the various transcoding programs, so please add any that have schroedinger support.
Also change any of the 'No' entries to WIP [work in progress] if that is the case.
