contributing be similar to the existing MPICH2 license so that we can
redistribute it with MPICH2? If we need to go through any process for that, it
will take time. So far, with 1 or 2 exceptions, we have been accepting
patches on an informal basis, so we don't have a contributor's license agreement
in place. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
