[Rivet] root2yoda

[Andy Buckley]

Hi Roman,

We don't have that script available yet -- we should make one, using the 
Python mappings of our ROOT converter functions, but you're actually the 
first to ask for it.

You were in touch about those functions before, and I applied some fixes 
that you suggested byut haven't touched them since! Do you have a 
working C++ program for doing the conversion? I'd like to make sure that 
they are working properly before making an it-just-works script that 
people will complain about!

Probably you can imagine why converting data to the format whose 
shortcomings led to YODA in the first place isn't top of our priority 
list ;-) Or at least just isn't an itch that we're personally very 
motivated to scratch. But we'd love to have the feature -- provided it 
also comes with a root2yoda partner, of course ;-) If you think the C++ 
converter functions are doing the right things now, I can try sending 
you some demo converter scripts to test.

Cheers,
Andy
