Dear IOR and mdtest users and contributors,
We are pleased to announce that the new home for the IOR and mdtest
benchmarks is now
https://github.com/hpc/ior. The old IOR-LANL repository
should now automatically redirect to this new location, and all of the
issues, pull requests, branches, and releases have been migrated.
Over the coming months, we will be taking stock of outstanding issues,
feature requests, and developer resources to establish a roadmap for
ongoing IOR and mdtest development. For anyone who is interested in
contributing, please keep an eye on the repository and these mailing lists
for calls for feedback and participation.
Sincerely,
The IOR+mdtest maintainer team

Dear IOR and mdtest users and contributors,
The IOR benchmark has recently seen a revival of development with some
substantial new features being contributed by members of the community. At
present, the most feature-rich and actively maintained fork of the original
IOR is at
https://github.com/ior-lanl/ior, but the breadth of the
community participating in that fork has grown beyond its original
maintainers at Los Alamos National Laboratory.
In response to this evolution, the current maintainers of IOR-LANL would
like to move the IOR benchmark, including the mdtest benchmark that was
recently merged into this fork, into an institution-neutral location.
Therefore, we are planning to relocate the official IOR/mdtest to
https://github.com/hpc, which is a GitHub organization with
representatives from academia, government, and industry. Following this
relocation, we will begin laying out a roadmap for IOR/mdtest feature
development with the involvement of any and all interested members of the
IOR/mdtest community.
Before we relocate IOR/mdtest and begin feature planning, though, we would
like feedback from IOR/mdtest users and contributors to gauge community
interest and address any questions or concerns. Barring any major
objections, we plan to move IOR/mdtest, archive the LANL fork, and begin
roadmap planning in January 2018.
Sincerely,
The IOR maintainer team
