Update on this plan...
I am going to delay merging the branch over to the trunk for awhile, perhaps
several weeks, for several reasons:
1. the trunk is somewhat unstable at the moment. Things are going in and
being backed out, errors in recent commits being found and corrected, etc.
at a pace I s
Hi Ralph -
Eliminating the dependence of OMPI on the GPR is in some ways
actually a plus, as it should make it much easier to enhance the GPR
as an optional advanced capability. In general, it would be great
if OMPI/ORTE could make it easier to support this sort of extension
mechanism, for exampl
Hi Doug
The changes are rather far-reaching. We essentially revamped the entire RTE
to switch from an event-driven architecture to one based on sequential
logic. This had large benefits, but the GPR was the casualty. Remember, the
aim for the past year has been to create a dedicated "lean, mean OM
Wellbest laid plans of mice and men, as they say.
We were just having -way- too much fun here at IBM today going over the new
ORTE design, planning for future scalability changes, etc., so American
decided to cancel my flight back home! So thoughtful!
I will be spending my Wed (hopefully!) en
Hi Ralph -
How extensive are the changes involved in removing the GPR? How hard would
it be for someone to maintain an enhanced version of this as an addon or
compile-time optional module? Thanks.

We talked about this on the OMPI con call today and everyone agrees
that this seems to be a good plan. Just as a safety net: if the merge
goes disastrously wrong and you're unavailable Thu/Fri this week, we
can just back it out and try again later.
Thanks!

Hello all
Per last week's telecon, we planned the merge of the latest ORTE devel
branch to the OMPI trunk for after Sun had committed its C++ changes. That
happened over the weekend.
Therefore, based on the requests at the telecon, I will be merging the
current ORTE devel branch to the trunk on W
