With ofed having a hundred and seventy patches in its "fixes" directory, 
saying that the merge plan/statement of each vendor can be discussed 
through email, where the features for the next version will be discussed 
over the phone, is a clear statement that this merge is in second and 
below priority compared to the next version features.

I say that best if each vendor which is signed on a patch set from the 
170 patches, makes a comment today at the meeting what is their merge 
plan. It would take five to ten minutes.

Or.
