 AB: I have an idea about this which kind of fits in the "building a
 theano op" thing that we talked about at the last meeting.
 
-We could have a specialezed theano op that takes a dataset and returns
-chunks of it with a index using the standard Dataset interface.  The
-code to transfer to the GPU or whatever goes in that Op and we don't
-need to change to dataset interface.
+We can just build a theano Op that wraps dataset objects and takes
+care of the details of tranferring data to the GPU or otherwise.
+
+I have a prototype interface/implemantation in the shared_dataset.py
+file in this directory.
