Thanks a lot for taking on the task of herding cats. Here are some comments: - Growing complexity does not have to mean worse performance. It really depends on where the complexity resides. - We have not at all agreed to formal recognition of optional parts of the standard. As a matter of fact, on the call there were more opinions expressed in favor of use of a subset in a certain instant, not optional sections. We may at the end conclude that for some features optional is the best way, but have not gone there yet. - Optimization potential: don¹t get into too much detail. I am not convinced that all that is listed there is actually correct ­ implementation can do (and do) a lot to eliminate some of the things listed in the bulleted list. - What did you have in mind with ³mutually incompatible families² ?

Hi everybody,

Thanks for your comments. Now the slides are also in the Wiki, see http://svn.mpi-forum.org/trac/mpi-forum-web/attachment/wiki/SubsettingWikiPa... /MPI-3%20subsetting.ppt .

Note that I'm going to incorporate your feedback and remove the backup in the final version - we'll only have 5 minutes to present the WG results to the Forum.

Best regards.

Alexander

Your comments will be most appreciated. I would like to finalize the slides on Friday, so please send your feedback by EOD your time on Thursday, March 6, 2008.

Sorry for the message size. I cannot upload this file to the Wiki due to file size limitation there. I work this with Rich in background.

Best regards.
