Re: [photran] [tools-pmc] Removing the Parallel EPP download

["Dr. Yehuda Singer" <yehuda.singer@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear all

 

The PTP is used also by C++ developer using MPI and the library pthreads(Light Weight Processes).. Hence, It has to be separated from the Fortran or at least be accessible a C++ application running MPI.

 

 

Best regards,

Yehuda

Dear all, 

it's been a week since my last email. 

Since I have not received any feedback on the Eclipse Photran Fortran Development Tools Project (https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.ptp.photran) I will be scheduling a termination review in the upcoming days.

Kind regards,

Maria Teresa

Dear PMC, Jeffrey, Jonah,

we are completing the termination review for the Eclipse PTP project. While doing this I realized PTP is parent to Eclipse Photran Fortran Development Tools (https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.ptp.photran) which seems to be inactive as well.

Do any of you have any insights regarding this project? Should we consider it for termination as well? or would you prefer moving this project directly under the Tools TLP?

Look forward to receiving your feedback.

Hi folks,

 

The PTP project has started a termination review and its JIPP has already been shutdown. As the PTP project was the main added value of the Parallel package (compared to CPP package) we are going to remove it from EPP (and PTP from SimRel) as there isn't any way to build updates.

 

See https://github.com/eclipse-packaging/packages/issues/85 for details and more links and a last minute chance to weigh in if you have concerns or questions.

 

FTR I am sad to see this package go, it still gets many downloads so some users are likely to miss it, but unless someone steps forward to maintain the PTP project I can't see how it can have a reasonable future.

 

Thank you Greg and everyone else for your contributions to PTP and Parallel package.

 

Jonah
