[ewg] OFA EWG Meeting: Monday, Feb 26, 2017, 09:00 AM US Pacific Time (12pm EST) - Minutes

[Davis, Arlin R]

Update: 

All critical bugs are fixed/tested with latest daily build: http://downloads.openfabrics.org/OFED/ofed-4.8-2-daily/OFED-4.8-2-20180307-0728.tgz

Vlad, please promote this daily build to RC3.

It is my understanding that Michal will send you an update to release notes for Bug #2674, which closes this final bug before GA.

Thanks, 

Arlin
