Roundtable
No meeting next week due to VIS.
The Todd Gamblin through the software stewardship work is creating a "High Performance Software Foundation" umbrella organization under the Linux Foundation for HPC code. Ken and Berk have be pursuing this. There have been some issues that popped up over who has authority to start this and similarities of trademark to VTK.
Intel is doing a live demo on Sunspot at SC. It would be interesting if VTK-m was part of that. Currently ParaView is running on Sunspot. We could potentially run VTK-m under ParaView if that could be made working. There are some current linking issues with VTK-m/VTK, but Abhi thinks he can get it working within the next month. Another option would be to use Jeff's VTK-m connector demonstration to show something running and rendering with ANARI.
