Hal had actually sent me a note on June 30th with a copy to Matt asking me when the OpenIB Gen2 version of MVAPICH will be released. I had replied to that e-mail indicating that `we are working on it and an initial version will be released around September '05'. In that e-mail, I had also indicated the following licensing issue related to the MVAPICH-OpenIB Gen2 release. >> Once we have a `reasonable' version to release, I will contact you >> folks regarding the `licensing' issues. We had a few rounds of >> discussion on this earlier. The simplest and easiest way for us to >> release this version will be to stick with the `OpenBSD' licensing >> which we have been following for MVAPICH and MVAPICH2 releases.

I wouldn't worry too >>much about changing MPI licenses to fit OpenIB. Since Matt heads the OpenIB effort, we have followed Matt's suggestions and thus, the current license on MVAPICH-Gen2 is OpenBSD. Regarding the missing licensing information on make and configure files, we thought it was not ncessary. However, we can fix those easily and check-in a new version if needed. Hope this helps.
