[Mpiwg-large-counts] Pythonizing + BigCount: virtual meeting on Nov 13?

[Jeff Squyres (jsquyres)]

Martin S --

The LargeCount / BigCount / WhopperCount / GinormousCount / UseYouFavoriteWordCount WG would like to reserve the 2-hour virtual meeting on Wed Nov 13.  This is the Wed before SC, and I'm sure it will be incredibly well attended!  ;-)

We'd like to cover two things:

1. The state of LaTeX Pythonizing
   (Recall: the Pythonization -- yes, that's totally a word; you must use it in a sentence with a colleague today -- of the MPI LaTeX is a separate effort than the Embiggening -- yes, that's also a word -- of "count" parameters.  Specifically: we're doing a comparable-to-MPI-3.1 Pythonization of the MPI bindings in LaTeX without Embiggening or otherwise changing any parameters.  Pythonization opens the door to multiple interesting things in the future, including Embiggening "count" parameters).

2. The state of BigCount / Embiggening
   There was a reading and much discussion at the last Forum meeting about Embiggening.  We'd like to get some Forum feedback before the next Forum meeting in December.
