> I agree that the 'openmp' runtime project logically fits within the
purview of a 'parallel' project. We may even want to move it there
eventually. We might also want it to remain separate while the project uses its
own coding conventions (which are different from LLVM's coding conventions
for historical reasons). We're not yet had that conversation, but it is a
good one to have.

Any reasons why we want to disrupt an established project and its users? Just
because we prefer "parallel" as a name for a new project and want to
validate this choice by moving an actual parallel runtime there?

Also, Chris' arguments on SE's lack of  users / standard body make a lot
of sense to me. I remember that CilkPlus was rejected for the same reasons. Why
SE (PPM, not the library) is different?

Yours,
Andrey
