Research direction

Start by locating where bluepymm depends on neurondb.xml and how that format is parsed or generated. Determine the requirements for a simpler end-user format that excludes unrelated repair instructions; the work is done when bluepymm no longer depends on the BBP internal format and the replacement behavior is covered.
