>+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
>+This library is an implementation of the verbs according to the Infiniband
>specification volume 1.2. It handles the control path of creating, modifying,
>querying and destroying resources such as Protection Domains (PD), Completion
>Queues (CQ), Queue-Pairs (QP), Shared Receive Queues (SRQ), Address Handles
>(AH), Memory Regions (MR). It also handles sending and receiving data posted to
>QPs and SRQs, getting completions from CQs using polling and completions
>events.

The verbs also support iWarp devices and are not necessarily restricted to the
1.2 IB spec definitions.  It might make sense to state that the IB
implementation is based on the 1.2 spec in an IB specific section, but keep the
general documentation transport neutral at this point.
