Hey Tziporet,

I cannot attend today's call.

For the chelsio drivers, there will be a series of patches to be pulled 
into ofed-1.3 for the chelsio cxgb3 driver.  They have been submitted 
upstream and ACKed by Garzik but he hasn't applied all of them yet. 
Once they are in his upstream branch, I'll pull them in for ofed-1.3 and 
ask Vlad (or you/michael in his absence) to pull these in.

In addition, I want to pull these same patches into ofed-1.2.5 so that 
tree has the latest chelsio fixes as well.

For the chelsio rdma driver iw_cxgb3, there will be a big patch to fix 
our port space issue.  It is still under development and review, however.

Steve.
