Actually, that seems like a direct contradiction with the prior sentence: If comm is an intercommunicator, then the result of the reduction of the data provided by processes in one group (group A) is scattered among processes in the other group (group B), and vice versa. It looks like the implementors of 2 implementations agree that recvcounts should be the size of the remote group. Sounds like this needs to be brought up in front of the Forum... -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
