MPIR New Interface

• No progress for this week, expect to have some for next time

PMIX Debugger Launch

• What can PMIX do to help with debugger attach?
• PMIX can launch debugger daemons co-located with processes
• PMIX could return the information currently stored in the process table
• How do we differentiate between what the resource manager does and what mpirun/exec does?
  • Where is the line?
  • How does PMIX fit in there?
• What are the current models for launching jobs?
  • How do people get information about the running job? The processes?
• Let's get a wiki page together to start documenting this information
  • There already is one: https://github.com/mpiwg-tools/tools-issues/wiki/Process-Acquisition-Interface
