b. OFED 1.5 release process:
Make sure all participants are inline with decisions we took in Sonoma
in the OFED/distro discussion:
1) Identify all user components which are not packaged as tarballs and
notify them that it will be a condition of inclusion in OFED 1.5 that
they are packaged as tarballs.
2) Ensure that each of the tarballs for OFED 1.5 has a unique version
number, and that version numbers are updated appropriately as the
tarball contents change.  
3) Ensure that each use level component that depends on specific kernel
feature actually checks for the existence of that kernel feature, and
politely declines to compile/install if that component is not available.
4)  Investigate making the OFED install work as non-root - Doug has
offered tutorials using BUILD_ROOT and chroot mechanisms to do non-root
builds.
