<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=092270814-28032006><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>Note that my concern with putting the MPI packages out in
the OpenFabrics SVN is the replication of code -- both Open MPI and the OSU
MVAPICH have their own publicly-available Subversion repositories. So
there's little sense in dumping full source versions of these software
packages in the OpenFabrics SVN -- if the content that we put there is
identical to what is already available in (for example) the Open MPI SVN, all
that does is create larger maintenance logistics (more places to update whenever
there are changes).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=092270814-28032006><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>I think there are two main options:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=092270814-28032006><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=092270814-28032006><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>- We only put IBED-specific and unique items in the OF SVN
(e.g., SRPMs / RPMs / specfiles that are unique to IBED -- not the same as the
general purpose SRPMs / RPMs / specfiles that may already be available for Open
MPI / OSU MVAPICH). The OF SVN then becomes the "real" repository for
these items. (I realize that everyone has their own, highly tweaked
versions of MVAPICH; since they are so different from the main OSU
distributions, this may be the option of choice for MVAPICH, since it's not
really the "OSU MVAPICH").</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=092270814-28032006><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>- If IBED does want exactly the same stuff that is
already available (e.g., using Open MPI's main SRPM / specfile), then the IBED
creation scripts can either just do a "wget" or "svn co" to download it
from Open MPI's SVN or we can use the svn:externals property to make it look
like this stuff is in the OF SVN for convenience. For stability /
repeatability / testing purposes, it is certainly possible to download a
specific revision of a specfile from the Open MPI SVN (for example), so that
when IBED is created, it always gets r1234 of the Open MPI
specfile.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=092270814-28032006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Note
that this is all a side issue mainly dealing with any software that is publicly
available elsewhere (e.g., Open MPI -- may not necessarily apply to
MVAPICH). I would still like to see all the scripts / unique content in
IBED show up in the OF SVN somewhere so that we can collaborate on
them.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
