All,<br>
<br>
As we enter Q2, I'm happy to announce that we a have a very good feature plan in place for both Q2 and Q4 releases in 2015 of the OFA driver. The list of requested features is included below for final review.<br>
<br>
I would like to formally ask for volunteers for patch submissions. As of today, there are no volunteers for any of the below patches.<br>
<br>
Intel would like to start with the volunteering... we will volunteer to provide the namespace management patch.<br>
