In our earlier e-mail on Sunday to the openib mailing list, we
announced that we are in the process of uploading the new mvapich-gen2
version to the OpenIB SVN and encountering some technical
difficulties. Yesterday, we discussed the SVN upload problem with Hal
and Roland and uploaded the files. We were going to make an
announcement today.

These files belong to Argonne's standard MPICH distribution on which
MVAPICH is based. They have NOT been introduced by us. Since the last
two years, MVAPICH is being distributed as an integrated package with
MPICH so that the end users can download and install it easily and run
it.
