I think that Mellanox has plans to submit their vNIC driver
for review prior to including it in OFED 1.5, as we agreed to
in the ftf meetings.  Not sure on the RDMA over ethernet driver. 

Also, I think that what we agreed to was that code should be submitted
and reviewed and queued for upstream inclusion prior to being
accepted  into OFED. We did not say that it had to be in a 
released kernel, say 2.6.30, but if it were queued in Roland's tree
for a future kernel, .eg., 2.6.31, then OFED would allow it.

At least that is the discussion I recall.
