[openib-general] [ANNOUNCE] Contribute RDS (Reliable DatagramSockets) to OpenIB

It is very important to Oracle for RDS to be available in OpenIB in as many
Linux distributions as possible.

Is this going to happen and in what timeframe / what are the plans for Linux
distributions to pick up OpenIB with RDS support ?

How can we (Oracle) help ?

I'm hoping to start the port soon.
It should have started earlier, but unfortunately I got side tracked by
some unforeseen issues.
