           Summary: Add ability to specify execution sites on swift
                    command line
           Product: Swift
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: running
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: SwiftScript language
        AssignedTo: benc at hawaga.org.uk
        ReportedBy: wilde at mcs.anl.gov


Allow a set of sites to be specified on the command line for each run, rather
than needed to edit the sites file to make such choices.

This feature is (or should be) tied to improvements in how the site data is
generated and maintained.

Discussion of a design for this feature on the devel list should precede any
development.

The related issues are:

- where to keep the site data that the command line options select from
- how to parameterize that data and add options to the selected sites
- how site data is generated and customized
- how a variety of choices can be specified for the selected sites (eg, use
coasters or not; which data movement strategy to use).
