[ofw] some WinOF questions

[Sufficool, Stanley]

IPoIB works fine for me with WinOF and OFED 1.2, although haven't had a chance to test more recent OFED kernels.

The driver models and interfaces are different.  This is a total guess, but I would expect the time to be 50-80% of the time to develop the code from scratch.

These are separate groups.  Even the features between WinOF and OFED are not similar.

files for linking executables against SDP, verbs, cm?

I would try here:
 
http://www.openfabrics.org/downloads/WinOF/

I don't know if there's another location or other available downloads.

> Is interoperability between WinOF and OFED expected/guaranteed?
 
I would expect interoperability with any standard protocols, such as IPoIB or SDP.  But I don't know how much testing has occurred in this area.
