this was discussed on the devel call today. the consensus is that we normally do not take this type of addition into a release branch. |

Howard and I discussed today, and agreed to take this as an experimental extension to OSHMEM, but wanted to relay the following comments: Typically we don't accept new functionality into a release branch, but our thoughts are as following:
Given it's importance, we understand and will take it. We don't want this to start a precedence of accepting new functionality on release branches. We hope to keep the release branches as stable and minimal as possible, which means keeping them to bugfixes only. Finally, we noticed there isn't much OSHMEM in MTT, it would be nice to have some specific OSHMEM tests in MTT. |
