One of the lingering syntax issues from the MPI Forum meeting last week has to do with the MPI_*_invalidate() operation.

"Invalid communicator" has a well defined meaning in the MPI standard, so it is bad to have an alternative meeting for the FT functionally. Therefore, we need a new name for this 'invalidate' operation.

Below are some suggestions (thanks to Jeff Squyres and Thomas Herault for some of these):

suspend annul negate discredit disqualify neutralize quash revoke rescind repeal revoke nuke nix explode smite infirmo

Are there others that folks want to suggest?

I kind of like 'repeal' or 'revoke' since we are revoking the context associated with the communication object through this function.
