Hello all - The release branch for the v1.2 release of Open MPI was created this afternoon. The branch was created from r11198 of the trunk. A couple of minor changes have been made to the v1.2 branch that did not go through the ordinary branch release process:
* remove btl:ud and pls:xcpu components * Remove the orte-ps, orte-clean, and console tools The removal of the tools was by suggestion of Ralph and Josh, with no complaints from others. It was also suggested that orteprobe be removed, but there was fear by Ralph that orteprobe was needed for other functionality. I did not remove the orteprobe code because of this -- if it isn't needed, then it can always be removed later through the normal gatekeeper process. At this point, the v1.2 branch is handed over to the 1.2 release managers (Terry Dontje and Rich Graham) and gatekeepers (Tim Mattox and Dan Lacher). Changes that need to be pushed into the v1.2 branch should have 'changeset move request tickets filed in Trac -- be sure to mark the milestone as 1.2. Nightly tarballs from the v1.2 branch will begin appearing tonight. Remember, there are issues with v1.2 and Libtool 1.5 and certain compiler combinations: http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2006/08/0984.php Brian
