[dcmf] RE: [MPICH2 Req #3926] Open source release of the BGP changes to MPICH2

[Michael Blocksome]

Rajeev,

Thanks for the update .. we've got a patch based on 1.0.6p1 almost ready, 
but we'll continue the upgrade to 1.0.7rc1 on Monday and post results next 
week.

1.0.7rc1 is ready and will be announced later today after the Windows 
binaries are built. The tar ball is already available from 
ftp://ftp.mcs.anl.gov/pub/mpi/mpich2-1.0.7rc1.tar.gz . If you can send us 
a patch for BG/P support based on 1.0.7rc1, we can include it in the 1.0.7 
release.

I left out a third option .. we could submit a patch to version 1.0.6p1 
and then help test version 1.0.7rc1 when it comes out.
