Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist GM is the native support software for message passing with Myricom high performance network interfaces (Myrinet). Those kind of PCI interfaces are available for many Unices and archs, and supply very high throughputs (up to 2Gb for a 66Mhz/64bit bus) for high performance computing. Sources are available and can be compiled under x86, ia64, sparc64, alpha, ppc with kernel 2.2 and 2.4.
Copyright will change in the next few weeks (as a contact with Nan Boden of Myricom Inc. confirmed) and GM could be available for distribution with Debian under non-free in source form. -- Francesco P. Lovergine
