SimGrid (3.11) NOT RELEASED; urgency=low
TENTATIVE RELEASE GOALS for 3.11:
- * Consider the removal of Supernovae mode if no user has manifested since the
- release of version 3.10.
* Switch to tesh.pl, and kill the now unused parts of xbt that seem fragile
- * Switch to surf++, and reintegrate the hypervisor branch on top of it
+ * Clean up CMake files (may need a full rewrite).
+ Non exhaustive list of subgoals:
+ - Use genuine cmake mechanisms and variables when available,
+ instead of reinventing the wheel.
+ - Correctly determine system and architecture (e.g. x32).
+ - Correctly determine compiler type and version (e.g. clang).
+ - Correctly set compiler flags according to compiler type and version.
+ - Correctly set compiler flags for C++, Java, and Fortran compilers too.
+ - Use git to generate the dist archive. Either use git-archive to
+ generate the tarball, or keep using cmake -E tar, but use git-ls-files
+ to get the list of files to pack.
+ - For Java, add an option to enable/disable the inclusion of the native
+ libraries in the jar file, and avoid to duplicate these files.
+
+ MSG:
+ * [FIXME: elaborate] Merge branch hypervisor
+
+ SURF:
+ * [FIXME: elaborate] Rewrite Surf in C++
+
+ Build System:
+ * Supernovae build mode is definitively removed. It was used to improve
+ inlining and inter-module optimizations. It is nowadays superseded by
+ link-time optimizations commonly available in compilers.
