MELA Analytics package

• The EventContainer package provides a clean and general way to organize the LHE-level particles.

• The GenericMEComputer package provides the capability to compute MEs from MELA using one-line strings.

• The CandidateLOCaster package allows the user to cast some topologies NLO in QCD into those LO in QCD by merging gluons into quarks appropriately. It is a pretty good approxiamtion for EW processes, but does not provide a good enough description for QCD processes themselves.
