[ewg] Distribution of userspace code for OFED-1.5

[Alexander Schmidt]

Hi all,

some time ago a new model for providing code updates in userspace libraries
was decided upon for OFED-1.5. In this model, the distributors of userspace
libraries should upload release tarballs to directories on the ofed server and
new code should be picked up from there.

I haven't heard any news on this topic since OFED-1.5 development has been
started and we have new code for the ehca library pending, so my question is:
is this new process already established or should we continue with sending out
git pull requests? I think the distributors were in favor of the new model, so
maybe they have an opinion on this?

I appreciate any comments!

Regards,
Alex
