[openfabrics-ewg] OFED Mtg Minutes 5/22

[Matt Leininger]

Hi All,

  I'd like to propose that we hold another EWG telecon about OFED-1.0
this week.  Several people/companies didn't know if today's telecon was
really scheduled.  Also we need to get the final OFED-1.0 release out
before the Paris workshop.  These two factors warrant another telecon to
make sure we're really on track.  Several items (SDP, RDS, etc.) need to
be settled.  Anytime Tues or Thurs, or the afternoon (PDT) Wed would
work for me.

I believe June 14th is the absolute latest date we can release OFED-1.0.
I'm double checking with SuSE and RedHat, but both distros wanted a
release prior to the Paris Workshop.   So we need to target June 7th for
a OFED-1.0-rc6.  Only show stopper bugs should be fixed in the week
between the OFED-1.0-rc6 and the official OFED-1.0 release.  

  Thoughts?

  Thanks,

	- Matt
