[openib-general] OFED 1.2 features update

[Tziporet Koren]

Hi,
In the OFED meeting yesterday the following decisions were taken:

1.  We agreed to have two types of features

    * Must have features - will delay the release if not ready
    * Desirable features - will be included only if they are ready on
      time according to OFED requirements.

2. The following features are added to OFED 1.2 as desired:

   1. iWARP - someone from iWARP company should be the owner
   2. VNIC - Madhue

    OFED 1.2 plan was updated on the Wiki: 
https://openib.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=OFED+1.2+release+plan+and+features

3. NFSoverRDMA:

    Will probably not be part of OFED 1.2 since it requires kernel pathces.
    Tom Tucker will prepare a package that will be installed over OFED 1.2

4. Sean should prepare patches or git tree for kernel code that is not 
upstream (e.g. SA cache)
5. Hal will take care for git-commit mails
6. Tziporet should send explanation on OFED inclusion requirements 
(backport patches, install scripts, etc.)
