Notes

  • PMIx v4 release update
  • CI for comparing OpenPMIx with PMIx Standard
  • PMIx v5 release update
    • https://github.com/pmix/pmix-standard/milestone/6
    • At last ASC meeting, voted to approve v5.0 w/ a few revisions related to changelog
    • Briefly, v4.2 changelog has several changes that are part of v5.0, but v4.2 not released yet.  So move all v4.2 changelog items to v5.0 changelog and add remark that the change is between v4.1 to v5.0.  (See #436)  Then later can add v4.2 changelog as appropriate when v4.2 is released.
    • Need to update the v5.0 AUTHORS list (see #437)
    • Need to review the contributors and institutions (use v5 meeting notes, commit msgs, and working group updates)
    • Probably should remove inactive folks and alpha sort the lists
    • Discussion on author/affiliation linking.  Decided to follow MPI Standard as example for how to display
    • Inclination is to be inclusive and add orgs and people involved in v5 effort
    • Will span all the way back to initial meeting in Chatt. to be most inclusive
    • There are some inactive WGs, so will want to list those too as they were involved in the process
    • Note: Also in cases there are some that have not been directly active, but have contributed indirectly in review and testing.  So consider if there are people or orgs that provided help behind scenes, check to see if they would like to be acknowledged.
    • For example, some have been involved in filing issues and discussions, which might want to be acknowledged.
    • Check on Stephan Krempel @ PARTEC
    • When PR is ready for review, will announce to list (target March quarterly) for people to review and check name, org, spelling, etc.
    • Suggestion: Create a checklist for release items (e.g., AUTHORs, ChangeLog, etc.)
  • Working Group Updates
    • IAWG (Dave)
      • Plan to bring publish/lookup chapter to a stopping point, but not plan to push for integration into Standard until an implementation exists (not time now).  So just put that text on hold for now.  For now, leave it as is.
      • Plan to move to next chapter (Events)
    • TDWG (Isaias)
      • Plan to get back to prototype and use Ralph’s session work
      • Look at needs for scheduler vs. resource mgr for dynamic workflows
      • Plan to focus on prototype
      • Hope to have a common interface for supporting dynamic workflows, to provide example for schedulers supporting this type of functionality.  Ralph also looking at related work for these dynamic items.
      • Tools side, know if want to have a tool to connect to multiple servers.  Example: pmix_tool_init() to connect to multiple servers. Possibly useful to correlate with multiple sources of information (e.g., Energy source, JobMgr source, etc.).  Item for discussion in Working Group.
      • Ralph pointed out that Tools are currently allowed to connect to multiple servers, and can switch between them to make one the primary server (i.e., where registered events are assigned).  See “set server” API.  This will mean you just need to toggle your “active” server (primary server) when making calls.
