During the private discussion of Jeff's proposal, I also voiced
reservations. First, I am not yet deeply moved by the argument that
it makes the C++ much easier. Writing 3 similar routines does not
seem much harder than 1 but I may be missing something. Second, we
bought into 3 functions at the MPI interface level why not have 3
callback functions. Finally, I also have the concern raised by Dick
that we are now saying that the MPI object handles must now be
pointers. I am curious to see if there is a way to use void * if you
use ints.
I don't feel strongly about this but unless there is more support I am
not inclined to change the text at this time.
