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.

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

Thanks!
