[openfabrics-ewg] [Openib-promoters] [openib-general] Current List of OFA Linux components and maintainers

[Stephen Langdon]

Bill,

I for one would like the OFA components clearly distinguished from 
things like the (non-OFA) MPI implementations which are distributed with 
OFED on a "grace-and-favor" basis as a convenience to users.  It is my 
view (which may or may not be shared by others) that they are not 
integral parts of OFED itself.
