[mpi3-rma] Plans ?

[Richard Graham]

Can you elaborate on this ?

What is the intent ?

Do you want to have ordering be required, or optional ?  Seems like there
are times
 where you would like to have ordering guarantees, and others in which you
want the
 network to blast things through as fast a possible, w/o concern for
ordering.
