[Gomp-discuss] Getting Back on Track

[Scott Robert Ladd]

Hi, all.

Several events have pointedly reminded me that GCC needs OpenMP. I'd 
like to see if we can get GOMP moving again. I realize we're all busy, 
and that none of us has funding for this project; I'm just hoping to 
make a bit of progress, with the intent of finding, I hope, some support 
for our work.

From discussions on the main GCC mailing list, it appears that tree-ssa 
will be merging into GCC mainline soon. This gives us a firm foundation 
for creating a design document. Before we can code anything, we need a 
clear idea of how OpenMP fits into GCC's design.

To that end, I will take responsibility for writing a formal design 
document. I must admit, I can't remember much about the content of our 
original design discussions, and will appreciate hearing from those who do.

..Scott
