This is the first release in the v6 family. The intent for this series is to provide regular "reference tags", effectively serving as milestones for any development that might occur after the project achieved a stable landing zone at the conclusion of the v5 series. It is expected, therefore, that releases shall be infrequent and rare occurrences, primarily driven by the completion of some significant feature or some particularly critical bug fix.

For this initial release, that feature is completion of the Group family of APIs. This includes support for all three of the group construction modes, including the new "bootstrap" method. A description of each mode can be found in the Group Construction section of the documentation.

A few notes:

1. Proper execution of the various group construction modes requires that the host provide the necessary backend support. Please check with your host provider to ensure it is available, or feel free to use the PMIx Reference RunTime Environment - you will require v4.0 or above.

2. Starting with this release, PMIx requires Python >= v3.7 to build a Git clone (ie., not a tarball). Certain elements of the code base are constructed at build time, with the construction performed by Python script. The constructed elements are included in release tarballs.

3. PRRTE < v4.0 is not compatible with PMIx >= v6.0 due to internal changes (e.g., show-help messages are now contained in memory instead of on-disk files).

A full list of individual changes will not be provided here, but will commence with the v6.0.1 release.

** WARNING **
This release contains a patch required for all servers that enable tool connections. Minus the patch, PMIx may over-aggressively cleanup files from the temporary directory that it did not create. The precise timing of the bug's introduction to the release series is unclear. Thus, all users are advised to update to this version as soon as possible.

Detailed changes include:

• PR #3479: Multiple commits
  • Cleanup a segfault when the host refuses group construct support
  • Update PRRTE CI to point at PRRTE v3.0 branch
  • Add a --nogreek option to make tarball
