There are a few changes relating to modex-less launch, but those will mostly be committed by early next week.

George told me about what he is doing, so no changes would be committed
until George has his changes in.

Are there other changes to the btl's that we should be aware of ?

Terry,

I'm involved [at some degree] in both efforts and I can confirm these
two efforts will not affect each other in any bad way.

I don't have any *strong* objections. However, I know that Eugene
and George B have been working on some Fastpath code changes that we
should make sure neither project obliterates the other.

Now that 1.3 will be released, we would like to go ahead with the
plan to move the btl’s out of the MPI layer. Greg Koenig who is
doing most of the work has started a wiki page with details on the
plans. Right now details are sketchy, as Greg is digging through
the code, and has only hand written notes on data structures that
need to be moved, include files that are not needed, etc. The page
is at:
_https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/wiki/BTLExtraction_

The first three steps basically only involve code motion, moving
items such as ompi_list, and renaming them, moving where the code
is actually located in the repository, and the like. For these we
do not plan to put out a formal RFC, but comments are very welcome,
and any hands that are willing to help with this are even more
welcome.

The last phase where the btl’s are made dependent on OPAL, and
supporting libraries such as mpools I expect will be disruptive,
and will definitely require an RFC, and will also be a longer
process.

Please send comments,
Rich
