ggplot2 and lattice

I am in the process of learning lattice graphics and have looked at
ggplot2 a little.  I would like to know if there is a "tutorial" that
shows how to convert lattice code into ggplot code and vise versa.  I
am finally discovering the power of these two packages and would like
suggestions to lessen my learning curve.  I could not find a straight
foward answer on the internet (I may have not looked far enough) to
what a parralelle plot is used for.
thanks
Hadley Wickham

No, but it is on my to do list.  I have this page,
http://had.co.nz/ggplot/vs-lattice.html, from a previous version of
ggplot, but most of the code no longer works.  It would be helpful if
you would look at the lattice examples and let me know what is
missing.  It wouldn't be much work to update it for ggplot2.
A parallel coordinates plot?

yes a parallel coordinates plot- I understand that it is for
multivariate data, but I am having a hard time figuring out what it is
telling me.  Thanks for your help.
