[ofa-general] Downloads missing from web site

[Doug Ledford]

One of the things that would go a *long* way towards easing my
integration of the openfabrics code into RHEL would be accessible
downloads of the latest release of various software packages.  I did a
quick check of the openfabrics.org/downloads area to see what software
releases are actually published and which aren't.  These are the things
I found.

Packages with good downloads:
rdmacm
management
cxgb3

Packages with downloads that could use some touchup:
dapl

Packages without any downloads:
ibverbs
SDP
utils
mthca
mlx4
ehca
ipath

Packages that should have a download area and don't:
too many to list

For those packages without any downloads available or without a download
area, if there is another place I should be looking for the
authoritative download source, please let me know.

For dapl, the version on the tarballs includes a release number and it
really shouldn't.  For example, there is dapl-2.0.1-1.tar.gz.  Having a
release number appended to the tarball version is going to produce an
extremely ugly looking release on my part, as it's going to end up being
dapl-2.0.1-1-1.el5 or something similar.  Not only that, but standard
tarball practice is to have the tarball unpack into a directory named
<package>-<version> where version is the entirety of the number string
between the package name and the archive extension, so the directory
would need to be dapl-2.0.1-1.
