Re: [OMPI users] OpenMPI Documentation?

Sorry, but LaTex is not a viable solution for open source community development of documentation. DocBook (XML) is one solution, another is DITA. I'm looking into some other open source communities that I'm familiar with to see what they're using. The general requirement for

Jeff, Count us in at the UofA. My initial impressions of Open MPI are very good and I would be open to contributing to this effort as time allows. Thanks! Jeff F. Pummill Senior Linux Cluster Administrator University of Arkansas Fayetteville, Arkansas 72701 (479) 575 - 4590

Re: [OMPI users] OpenMPI Documentation?

Jeff, I would also be interested. I am getting questions from my customers about the location of documentation. Thanks, Pat Jeff Squyres

Re: [OMPI users] OpenMPI Documentation?

Re: [OMPI users] OpenMPI Documentation?

Thanks for the reply. Actually, I'm working with the MPI team at Sun and I was wondering if there was already a team within the OpenMPI community thinking about developing a doc set for OpenMPI. Such doc communities exist for the other open source communities I've worked with, such as

Re: [OMPI users] OpenMPI Documentation?

Open MPI adheres to the MPI standard (www.mpi-forum.org), but as for specific docs for the Open MPI software package itself, the best we have at the community level is the README and man pages in the tarball and the web site FAQ (www.open-mpi.org/faq/). Sun is actually considering
