#4506: Boost.MPI suggests obsolete MPI implementations
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  jewillco      |       Owner:  dgregor 
     Type:  Bugs          |      Status:  new     
Milestone:  Boost 1.44.0  |   Component:  mpi     
  Version:  Boost 1.44.0  |    Severity:  Cosmetic
 Keywords:                |  
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 The Boost.MPI "Getting Started" page suggests the use of Open MPI 1.0.x,
 LAM/MPI 7.x, and MPICH 1.2 as underlying MPI implementations.  The example
 given there uses LAM/MPI.  However, LAM/MPI is no longer maintained, while
 Open MPI is on version 1.4.2 and MPICH2 1.2.1 (not original MPICH) is
 current.  The documentation should be updated to show an example with a
 more modern MPI implementation.
