Re: [OMPI devel] RFC: remove PMI component in OMPI/RTE framework

[Ralph Castain]

Yeah, my concern is that we just had a user who was confused by it and thought 
they needed to build it to use PMI under Slurm - which is totally the wrong 
thing to do. So I removed it from the 1.8 branch to avoid any further 
confusion, and don't see any reason to continue carrying it in the trunk (heck, 
nobody builds it as evidenced by its stale situation).

Re: [OMPI devel] RFC: remove PMI component in OMPI/RTE framework

Hi Ralph,

This component does provide a alternate reference for the ompi-rte
framework.  But if it is unused (unmaintained), it seems less useful in
practice.  I'll post another RFC for related request.

This was a component added by Brian as a test of the ompi/rte framework while 
we developed that system. It never really had any purpose other than to provide 
an alternative to ORTE while we tested the revised integration. So far as we 
know, nobody ever used it in an actual installation.

[OMPI devel] RFC: remove PMI component in OMPI/RTE framework

[Ralph Castain]

WHAT:  remove stale and unmaintained component in ompi/rte framework

WHY:   because it is unused, unmaintained, and doesn't even compile?

WHEN:  without objections, after telecon on June 9

HOW:   svn del ompi/rte/pmi

This was a component added by Brian as a test of the ompi/rte framework while 
we developed that system. It never really had any purpose other than to provide 
an alternative to ORTE while we tested the revised integration. So far as we 
know, nobody ever used it in an actual installation.
