I can't speak for other driver authors, but we started working on our
drivers long before OpenFabrics was a gleam in any consortium member's
eye. Between that historical fact and the unsuitability of Subversion
for serious development, the die was cast.

Realistically, no. We still need to vet patches, cherrypick them, and
tidy them up before we send them along to Roland, and I suspect that
other driver authors are in a similar position.
