All - Per the discussion on today’s telecon, we’re going to rename the branch Saturday (5/27) morning (Pacific time). We’ll branch v3.0.x from v3.x and update all the nightly builds and web pages. I’m going to push through all the PRs on 3.x which are currently outstanding, but please be careful about pushing together complex PRs on 3.x for the rest of the week. If something is submitted before Saturday and doesn’t make it due to reviews, you’ll have to resubmit.

Things that would change: 1) nightly tarballs would rename from openmpi-v3.x-<date>-<git hash>.tar.gz to openmpi-v3.0.x-<date>-<git hash>.tar.gz 2) nightly tarballs would build from v3.0.x, not v3.x branch 3) PRs would need to be filed against v3.0.x 4) Both https://www.open-mpi.org/nightly/v3.x/ and https://www.open-mpi.org/nightly/v3.0.x/ would work for searching for new nightly tarballs At some point in the future (say, two weeks), (4) would change, and only https://www.open-mpi.org/nightly/v3.0.x/ would work. Otherwise, we need to have a coordinated name switch, which seems way harder than it needs to be. MTT, for example, requires a configured directory for nightlies, but as long as the latest_tarball.txt is formatted correctly, everything else works fine.

In the long term renaming seems like the way to go, and thus the pain of altering everything that depends on the naming will exist at some point. I'am in favor of doing it asap (but I have no stakes in the game as UTK does not have an MTT). George.

Because the current plan is that each “major” release (in the sense of the three release points from master per year, not necessarily in increasing the major number of the release number) is to rebranch off of master, there’s a feeling that we should have named the branch v3.0.x, and then named the next one 3.1.x, and so on. If that’s the case, we should consider renaming the branch and all the things that depend on the branch (web site, which Jeff has already half-done; MTT testing; etc.). The disadvantage is that renaming will require everyone who’s configured MTT to update their test configs. The first question is should we rename the branch? While there would be some ugly, there’s nothing that really breaks long term if we don’t. Jeff has stronger feelings than I have here. If we are going to rename the branch from v3.x to v3.0.x, my proposal would be that we do it next Saturday evening (May 13th). I’d create a new branch from the current state of v3.x and then delete the old branch. We’d try to push all the PRs Friday so that there were no outstanding PRs that would have to be reopened. We’d then bug everyone to update their nightly testing to pull from a different URL and update their MTT configs. After a week or two, we’d stop having tarballs available at both v3.x and v3.0.x on the Open MPI web page. Thoughts?
