Minutes of June 10, 2014 Open MPI Core Developer Meeting

1.       Review 1.6 - Nothing new

2.       Review 1.8 - Most things are doing fine.  Still several tickets 
awaiting review.  If influx of bugs slows, then we will get 1.8.2 release 
ready.  Rolf was concerned about intermittent hangs, but needs to investigate.

3.       Some discussion of RFC process.  Keep it as is for now, but will 
discuss again at developers meeting

4.       Slurm is difficult to support because the slurm code is constantly 
changing.  This makes it very difficult to support different versions and 
creates lots of integration issues with ORTE.  Someone needs to step up and 
help Ralph with supporting slurm.  Joshua Ladd says Mellanox can perhaps help 
with this.

5.       Discussion about adding STCI component to OMPI/RTE framework.  Sounds 
like everyone is good with it going in.

6.       UDCM bug - problem is with user system, not with UDCM.  But maybe we 
still need to do something so that UDCM fails in a better way.  Nathan 
investigating.

7.       Jeff opened up a blocker bug - missing fortran APIs

8.       Ralph talked about the idea that he will be bringing back a 
"minimizing the modex" feature.  Used to have something that would check 
whether we needed endpoint information, and if it was not needed, we would just 
fall through and skip the barrier.  This functionality has atrophied, but Ralph 
is hoping to restore it.

9.       As much as we would like a link to the email message on the email to 
the user or development list, it is not easy to implement.  So, it will not be 
happening.
