In generating the WinOF 1.0.1 release notes, I'd like to say something
more than SRP fixes.
Could someone who is familiar with the recent SRP fixes comment on the
nature of these SRP fixes?

W.r.t. WinOF 1.1 content discussions which started in Sonoma, what new
components/features are ready for, or will be ready for WinOF 1.1
inclusion?

DAT/DAPL v2.0 is ready to go, what else?

Do we have an existent proof for openib-windows running on Windows
Server 2008 ?

Additional items from the Sonoma meeting,

- MSI-X support in HCA driver on Windows Vista and Server 2008.
- DHCP support in IPoIB so that PXE boot can work over IB.
- Partitioning support
- Eliminate DAPL ATS and query ARP cache for WSD, and maybe DAPL too
- RDMA CM functionality
- SRP boot support
- iSCSI over IPoIB boot support
- High Availability in IPoIB (LBFO) and SRP/iSER (MPIO)
- Connected mode IPoIB
- IB fabric diagnostics, similar in functionality to what available on
Linux OFED.

What progress has been made on these items?

Thanks,

Stan.
