2.       IPOIB CM

4.       WinVerbs/WinMad

a.        WinMad is in good shape. A few bug fixes in Lib_IB_Mad and IB Diags that are upstream and need to be pulled in

b.       DAPL tests and RDMA/CM functionally seems to be working

c.        WinVerbs looks to be ready. Holdup is related to how to handle queuing of the work items.

                                                            iii.      Can push to SVN now but waiting for queuing issue to be resolved.

1.       Should be resolved in a day or two.

5.       Windows 7 Support

                                                               i.      Windows 7 Server appears to be Server 2008 R2

                                                              ii.      Will we need to support  Server R1 and R2 as separate entities?

1.       Fab to follow up.

6.       NDIS 6.0 vs. 5.1

7.       Windows XP

a.        Mellanox's customer requests are keeping this alive

b.       Would like to drop it for WinOF 2.2 but we will have to evaluate their demand.
