[Mpiwg-large-counts] DRAFT: Chapter Committees ACTION NEEDED

[Jeff Squyres (jsquyres)]

This is a DRAFT of what I'd like to send to the Forum to get all Chapter Committees to review the document-wide stuff that we need reviewed.  Please send comments / suggestions to me.  Thanks!

(Last week, I accidentally sent this to the wrong WG -- I am [finally] re-sending it to the large count WG for proofing before I sent this out to the entire Forum mailing list / chapter chairs)

-----------------------------------------

We need Chapter Committees to review their chapters in 2 sets of upcoming document-wide changes that are slated to be merged "soon".

After you complete a review, please put an "X" in the corresponding row/column for your chapter and the specified PR in this Google spreadsheet<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qPAREYgeuSCMtU-EQniDilrHIYb8W0-f6Qzjp-UtnH8/edit?folder=1_LOwR_QeX_bwIe_eptiy0OxWaOvPQ8W8#gid=0>.  This will let us track what has been done / what still needs to be done:

FIRST SET

Bill Gropp (the MPI Standard document Editor) has two PRs with "ticket 0" changes.  However, the changes are pervasive and touch a LOT of the document.  We therefore need Chapter Committees to review their chapters in the following two PRs:

1a. "Ticket 0 changes for MPI-4.x"
   https://github.com/mpi-forum/mpi-standard/pull/145
1b. "Uniform style for Fortran code"
   https://github.com/mpi-forum/mpi-standard/pull/151

Deadline: Jan 7, 2020
    (Yes, that's an early deadline, but we need time to merge this and fix conflicts with the second set)

SECOND SET

The Pythonization group has Pythonized the bindings in the entire document.  We've completed a first correctness pass over the work, but we need more eyes to compare the end result of our work to (at least) the MPI-3.1 document -- or, better yet, to the head of the mpi-4.x branch.

See this wiki page for instructions: https://github.com/mpiwg-large-count/large-count-issues/wiki/pythonizing-initial-review

Also please see the Pythonization slides presented at the Forum last week<https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1QZyh6TbjDMu7mEcNqBFfe9fFOltaCtxgZ2ZODzdtDpI/edit#slide=id.g5d01a902fe_0_69>.

Deadline: 21 Jan, 2020
    This gives us time to finalize everything before the T-2 week deadline for the Portland Forum meeting.

NOTE: At the ABQ Forum meeting, I asked you to commit/PR your approvals.json file that resulted from running the tool.  This is no longer necessary -- please just mark the google spreadsheet as described above.
