[Openib-windows] patches on mailing list

[Tzachi Dar]

To my understanding, commits can't wait to be confirmed by everyone, this
will delay things too much. You might send a more detailed mail when there
is a big Checkin. 
I also believe that our mailing lists should be different from the Linux
mailing lists. If there is a fix that should be also taken into the Linux
branch (Gen1? Gen2) then we should mail it to them.

Thanks
Tzachi

Subject: [Openib-windows] patches on mailing list

Hi Folks,

I'd like to get some input from the community - I'm currently working on the
fab_cm_branch and making fixes both to the CM and to the ULPs as I test.
Specifically, my testing is focusing on Winsock Direct at the moment.

Are people interested in seeing the nitty-gritty patches?  Should I send
them to
the list for review before applying?  Should I send them to the list as an
FYI
and apply them without waiting for feedback (as in a commit log)?

Just curious as to what people want to see.  Posting patches might reveal
issues
that could tip off similar fixes on the Linux side.  The flip side is I
don't
want to cause a lot of spew if the general consensus is that no one cares.

Also, the Linux side of things has the openib-commit mailing list.  Should
the
Windows repository automatically send commit information to the
openib-commit
mailing list?  Should it send instead send them to the openib-windows
mailing
list?  Should we create a new mailing list for windows commit information?
Or
does no one care?

I just want to make sure people are happy with the process.  Creating
patches to
post here is a bit more work for me than just committing them, so if no one
cares I won't do it.  If there is interest, though, I think it is worth it.

Thanks all,

- Fab
