Address issue #79

gmegan commented 5 years ago

Just realized I have not added rationale for removing 32/64 fixed size collectives. Making this note so I don't forget.

Isn't this covered by the deprecation rationale for "active-set-based collective routines"? We didn't add typeless team-based 32- and 64-bit fixed-sized collectives, but I don't necessarily think we need a rationale for that.

Yes, this is under the same category, I think. So maybe we won't add in a separate section or table line for this but just add a sentence in the active set rationale that says there is no need for fixed-length version of teams since we have types now.
