Thanks, Jeff.
I’m not sure if they see it as a
graduation, yet. I know they aren’t getting much service from the Tech
PMC and since I’m already working with them from the CDT angle, this just
seemed like the logical progression. Also, as we try to get the project leads
working together and sharing ideas, I think these guys are gaining a lot of
experience building some pretty cool tools that we’ll be able to benefit
from their expertise.
There will be more in the Move review
slides, but that is the gist of it.

I'm fine with this. Out of curiosity, is this
seen as a graduation step for them? That is, why move?

[tools-pmc] PTP Move to Tools
|
|
Hey gang,
Still
no minutes from John (sigh…)
One of
the things we talked about was moving the Parallel Tools Project (PTP) from
Technology to Tools. PTP, for those who don’t know, is building a
development environment to support applications that run on big iron super
computers such as you would find on www.top500.org. They are truly
testing the limits of Eclipse’s scalability, especially on debug where
they end up debugging thousands of processes at a time. PTP currently reuses a
lot of the CDT to support C development and Photran (which also reuses a lot of
the CDT) for Fortran. From their last conference call, they have a nice
community growing of mainly research based organizations, but with a smattering
of commercial vendors getting interested.
At any
rate, I’ve talked to them and they are definitely interested in joining
the Tools community and would be a great addition to our portfolio. Can I get a
semi-formal approval to proceed with organizing the Move review. We can do a
more formal approval once the Move review slides are completed.
Thanks,
Doug
