[openfabrics-ewg] IBED-1.0-rc2 build issue - PR# 22 created

[Florin, Reini]

I think that merging the work (both technical and process) that was started by Cisco, Mellanox, SilverStorm and Voltaire in creation of a single commercial grade distribution and process prior to the EWG being approved last week by the board needs to be a key discussion topic at our next EWG conference call.  

In the spirit of openness, and progress towards a common goal, I think it is time for anyone now in the working group to all get on the same page.

Hmm.  OK.

As I understand it (and contrary to the note I sent yesterday), the
intention has actually been to not create a separate EWG branch, but to
use the 1.0 branch.  I see that the IBED drop comes off the OpenIB
trunk, which means it is already quite a bit out of sync with the 1.0
branch.

As I've done quite a bit of work to get the 1.0 branch into a shape
where it can build RPM packages that work properly at all, I'd suggest
that Mellanox nominate specific items that are needed from the IBED drop
or from trunk that should get imported into the 1.0 branch, so that we
can converge on a single tree again.  That way, we can keep the testing
and integration load manageable.
