@VictorEijkhout Btw I took the liberty of adding a "Fixes #339" message to your PR description, so that merging this PR will automatically close the issue.

I had yesterday a discussion with Damien on this. This PR points something unfortunate out: I am not sure that the target being called std::mdspan is a very fortunate choice considering that mdspan is in the standard, and part of LLVM for example. We were wondering if we should rename the target (with providing an alias as std::mdspan for a while).

@crtrott I had the same thought. Especially since in the program it's still Kokkos::mdspan.

Thanks for submitting this! I just have a couple of suggestions

@@ -13,6 +13,25 @@ Note: There is a tag mdspan-0.4.0 which reflects the status of P0009 before
* renaming `pointer`, `data`, `is_contiguous` and `is_always_contiguous`; and before
* renaming `size_type` to `index_type` and introducing a new `size_type = make_unsigned_t<index_type>` alias.

I think we should move this under the "Using mdspan" subheading and retitle this something like "Cmake find_package" or something like that


mdspan is discoverable by CMake:

I think I would just have the include here (I personally prefer with angle brackets, but I suppose it's a matter of taste)

Suggested change
```
#include "mdspan/mdspan.hpp"
namespace md = Kokkos;
...
md::mdspan
```cpp
#include <mdspan/mdspan.hpp>

I think we could probably leave out the namespace alias here

We should take this over and change what we name our cmake targets
