Hi fellow Dune developers,

Intel announced that they stop further development of their ICC C++
compiler. ICC has been received as a compiler creating the fasted
executable in many cases.
Intel will invest in the development of their LLVM-based oneAPI DPC++
compiler, which should be slightly faster in compilation and still
outperform GCC and LLVM.

More details:

Has anyone already tested Dune with this new compiler? At some point in
time, we should no longer supporting ICC but the new one.

Bye
Christoph
