Yes, I made a first stab and have something really rudimentary. But it has been moved 'back down the queue' as I (as part of the pkg-openmpi team on Alioth) am trying to get an all new, all shiny OpenMPI into Debian. Maybe this weekend. If and when it happens, I *will* post in debian-science (and possibly debian-devel) to reach other MPI maintainers and users. And yes, once we have a properly maintained and non-buggy OpenMPI package, it will be worthwhile coordinating with other the MPI implementation packages, and updating the packages using MPI (and particularly lam) such as Rmpi. Help would be welcome on any and all of these projects. For the R/MPI intersection, I am currently the only worker bee so this is bound to be slow.
