[slurm-users] [External] Re: DMTCP or MANA with Slurm?

[Prentice Bisbal]

Still no reply to any of my e-mails to the mailing list. I have looked 
through the archives, and while traffic there is very light, it's all 
questions from people asking for help who never get it. I'm not the only 
one who thinks this project is dead:

https://sourceforge.net/p/dmtcp/mailman/dmtcp-forum/?viewmonth=202102

Checking their github issues, I see a lot of issues raised by users with 
no responses whatsoever.

https://github.com/dmtcp/dmtcp/issues

This is not a good look for an open-source project, especially one that 
recently gave a webinar touting the benefits of using this software.
