Hello,

I am working on a project, which implies the existence of the dynamic
process model in MPI (LAM 6.0 would do it), but it also would be 
convenient to have one-sided communication, which is proposed in the
draft of the new standard of MPI.
Now I am interested about when there will be anew release of LAM or
MPICH who includes the things above. I've always read about
Supercomputing '96 which will be the point in time where the new
standard MPI 2.0 will be released, but never when it will happen and
last but not least how long will it take afterwards that new
implementations (for clusters of workstations like LAM or MPICH)
satisfying that standard will be available.

For any information or only any clue I would be very thankful !

Lothar.
