Tell me about it! :)
What have you been planing to do ?
Quite honestly, I'm not sure. I'll re-read Biago's design document
today, to refresh my memory.
Do we have a plan of action? I've been awfully busy in the last two
months, so I'm out of the loop a bit.
Here's where I stand on things:
I'm under contract to write a book about parallel programming for
Springer; for now, I'm using Intel's compiler in the OpenMP sections,
and gcc for the MPI (mpich) code. Thus I have my mind buried deep inside
the subject for the next few months.
At the moment, I'm focused on OpenMP, developing a series of "real
world" examples for the text. The examples follow a graduated pattern of
increasing complexity, and stress many of the odd nooks and crannies in
OpenMP.
From a cursory look at libgomp, a configure script appears to be
something I could contribute. I can also start putting some flesh on the
bones of the library.
Should we include the OpenMP specifications and other references on the
web site or CVS?
I am *not* an expert on compiler internals, nor do I have intimate
knowledge of gcc's code generator; it's been more than a decade since I
last hacked a compiler (Modula-2!) That isn't to say that I'm unwilling
to start modifying gcc -- however, I would prefer a bit of guidance and
more knowledge before committing compiler code to screen.
Essentially, that's where I stand. Where to from here?
