PTP status

  • Eclipse 3.2: Tested PTP on 3.2M6 and there didn't appear to be any major issues. MPI development tools didn't work, however. Need to start migration to 3.2 in preparation for Callisto release.
  • New debugger features: Clement has added thread support, and is in the process of adding memory view and signals.
  • Resource Manager: Randy has almost finished preliminary design. Will post to wiki for comments.
  • Remote services: Tianchao is looking at RSE to see if it is going to be suitable for providing remote services for PTP.
  • IBM: have working on performance analysis tools
  • Oregon: tuning TAU plugin to get ready for contribution
  • Absoft: working on FX2 to replace gdb as backend debugger

Action: Greg & Wyatt to begin approval process for TAU plugin contribution

Move to Tools Project

  • Doug: good idea beacuse of overlap, sharing, activity. Would like a release review of PTP 1.0 before the move
  • Wyatt: any pracitcal issues? Switching CVS/web pages + administration
  • All present agreed to the move from to Technology to Tools Project

Action: Greg to arrange release review for PTP 1.0
Action: Greg & Doug to transfer PTP to Tools Project

EclipseCon roundup

  • Long talk, demo (relatively small attendance), BOF (well attendance)
  • In future, look at coordinating better with CDT project
  • BOF is difficult to arrange, Beth provided feedback to Eclipse so hopefully this should be better next year
  • Getting too large, don't know how to fix
  • Focus on parallel conferences rather than EclipseCon
  • FX2 demo for SC, but good opportunity to promote at EclipseCon next year

SC06 tutorial

Tutorial submitted. Waiting to see if we get accepted.

Other business
