I created ticket 462 as a placeholder for whenever someone has time to work on this. MPI_GRAPH_CREATE does harm to users because they might use it. Somebody might naively think that distributed graphs are more complicated to use than replicated ones... Jeff On Tue, Dec 2, 2014 at 1:57 AM, Torsten Hoefler <[email protected]> wrote:
I am unfortunately too busy these days to drive it (a clean removal will touch several places). It is ugly but it doesn't do any direct harm to the standard or its users.

Jeff,
There is no such proposal yet (afaik), I'd support a carefully crafted one and I think I wouldn't be alone.
Thanks & Best, Torsten

It seems that there are many issues with it and they are deliberately not getting fixed because a subset of the issues with it make it too horrible to fix.
I find this situation distasteful as it leads to a poor user experience. Let's do the right thing and put MPI_GRAPH_CREATE out of our misery sooner rather than later.
Thanks,
Jeff
