Hi David,

1.
I never really understood how to use the property maps
correctly/efficienty, but I've found using "bundled properties" fairly
straightforward.
Like so: http://codepad.org/ThR2i2FI
documentation: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_40_0/libs/graph/doc/bundles.html

2.
if you want/need to use unsigned ints as vertex descriptors then you
need to store the vertices in a vector, like so:
