[ofa-general] [PLEASE READ] Transition from general at lists.openfabrics.org to linux-rdma at vger.kernel.org

[Roland Dreier]

Hi everyone,

As you may have noticed, the linux-rdma at vger.kernel.org list is up and
running.  A number of sites have started archiving it -- in no
particular order, the sites I know of are:

    http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-rdma/
    http://marc.info/?l=linux-rdma
    http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org/
    http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.rdma

If you know of any archives I've missed, please let me know.

Another nice tool we have with the new list is

    http://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-rdma/list/

which will make me have to work a little harder to lose patches.  Also,
if you are someone who handles a driver or some other part of the tree,
you can register and I will be able to delegate patches to you.

I would suggest that everyone who is currently following
general at lists.openfabrics.org to subscribe to the new list (send the
line "subscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to
majordomo at vger.kernel.org).  Also, everyone sending email to the old
list to also please start to copy the new vger list as well (especially
for patches, so that the patchwork tool catches them).

As a date to finalize the transition, I propose the end of the month --
that is, on October 1 we shut down the old general@ list and expect
everything to be cut over by then.  I'll send a number of reminders
before then, but please do speak up if this schedule is too tight -- I
don't think keeping the old list running for longer is a big hardship
for anyone.

Finally, I'll plan to merge the following for 2.6.32:
