I think that we need to discuss this in the EWG meeting. In the past I think that we have agreed to only do bug fixes in point release and not add major new features. If we do want to include the new MPI, then perhaps we should call it 1.5 and pull in the schedule for 1.5. Just a thought.

And there are RDS issues with ofed-1.4 even over IB that I think will add to justification.
