I agree with Sean. Windows has lots of deployments in many sectors that would like to use IB. The new Holland Computing Center at UNO is supposed to be the largest Windows HPC environment with about 1151 nodes. IB is the interconnect. Also, there are many Defense initiatives looking into the use of IB for utility computing infrastructures, and there are lots of Windows connections that would have to be made. 
 
I believe that we must continue the work on the OFW and get it interoperable with the other OFED stacks, completely, and quickly.

I just noticed that the previously scheduled presentation on the future of winof
has been removed from the OFA workshop agenda.  Does anyone have any info on
why?

It's possible not a lot of the attendees at the conference will care much about
Windows, but I do think that ofw should discuss and come to some conceptual
agreements on the overall, *long term* direction to take the stack.
