Roundtable
Campaign to compile on new pre-exascale architectures by October.
- Would organizing a virtual code sprint help (or hinder)?
Rename master branch?
- Need to wait for some changes to git before the transition (for some automated features of repo).
- Can we for a time have a master that mirrors the new default?
- Don't know, but seems possible. Will have to look into that.
