Hi Jussi,
   thanks for your comments.

   Well i'm not that interested on the fedora branches as i am in EPEL ones. I
totally understand your point but i can definitely say that there many (grid)
sites that are running torque thus there would be some use for them. And fedora
still ships this "obsolete" torque.

   Regarding whether this package is obsolete, well as long as torque and MPICH
are maintained, and used in production i wouldn't say that this is the case.

   Now regarding naming i really don't care, functionality matters on my side,
if you think that renaming it to "something"-mpiexec or mpiexec-"something"
will help, i'm with you. I just used mpiexec as this is the name that vendor
used. But for sure naming it "something"-mpiexec will not be the first guess
that someone will try if he/she wants to install this package as vendor uses
plain "mpiexec" (wrongly in my opinion too).

    Anyway i see that there is no will to push this forward, although there is
no policy (that at least i'm aware of) against it, so feel free to close this
ticket.

Regards,
Christos
