I am using schwimmbad with some extensions for our particular work load. Specifically, we periodically need to guarantee that we run a function on each member of the pool. Would that be something that would be within the scope of this library, or is it too specialized? If it's within scope, I'd be interested in contributing the code here.

I'm not the boss (@adrn), but I don't think that this is out of scope and I think it would be a useful addition. I don't normally use the bcast feature that exists in emcee.MPIPool, but I know that others do. If you put this together, could you also write up an example usage? Thanks!

Agreed! I would definitely welcome that, but just ask for some examples / documentation.

Thanks!
