I'm thinking about trying to sneak in openmpi 3.1.3 before the f30 branch.
My COPR rebuilds have been looking pretty good lately so I hope it will go
fairly smoothly.  Does anyone have any objections?  I'm planning on starting
tomorrow if not.

Why not 4.0.0? It was released in September 2018 and it's supposedly ABI
compatible with 3.x:

Because it's still relatively new. I've hit enough problems with major bumps in openmpi to be a little wary. And I don't have the COPR testing record for it. We are doing this last minute so I'm trying to be a little more careful.

It's a big jump from the currently packaged 2.1.6. Any idea why we are
so behind upstream? 3.0.0 was released in September 2017, 3.1.0 in May
2018. 3.0.0 should have been in F27 or F28 and 3.1.0 in F29 latest.

Because no one else has stepped up to help maintain it and I'm stretched too thin.

Also, they say 2.1.6 is the last release in 2.1.x series, so I'd say
an update to a supported version is a must.

I concur as well.
