What is the plan for merging with future MPICH updates? I've dealt with keeping full copies of the linux kernel in various version control systems, and merging with upstream always turns into a huge headache. Of course, if there aren't going to be any more MPICH-1 updates, then this is really no big deal. My first suggestion is to remove the java .jar and configure files. There is also probably a lot of other stuff that really doesn't need to be there as well. Do we really need to keep windows specific code in the (currently linux-only) OpenIB project svn tree? _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list openib-general@openib.org http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
