  :-) Though that could be slightly confusing it is just the petsc developers mailing list and distinct from “petsc-dev” which means some mystical repository somewhere (what branch?) that does need to be eradicated from our vocabulary.

Note the email we just got:

Thanks,
John


  I have not clue what branch John is talking about.
