The proposed feature list for OFED 1.3 sent out on 6/26/2007 included the Asynch I/O for SDP, is this feature now being drop for the 1.3 release? Oracle has spent considerable effort to support SDP in our products and Oracle proposes that Asynch I/O for SDP be included in the OFED 1.3. What is required to include this feature for OFED 1.3?

Regards,
Norman

Meeting minutes are available also on OFA Wiki: _https://wiki.openfabrics.org/tiki-index.php?page=Teleconf+07-02-2007_

*Abbreviated minutes / summary*

    * OFED 1.2.1 support release - we plan a support release on
      beginning of August.
    * OFED 1.3 - decided that its most important to close the schedule
      and focus on most important features based on this schedule
          o Based on discussion in the meeting it seems that the best
            target for OFED 1.3 is November 07

    * Most important features (from representative who participated in
      the meeting)
          o Voltaire: ConnectX stable release
          o IBM - IPOIB CM without SRQ
          o Qlogic: Package convenient for distros; ConnectX stable
          o iWARP: Chelsio: Get to GA level and NFSoRDMA integration.
            NetEffect: Get the drivers into OFED
          o Mellanox: ConnectX stable release; new package; QoS

*Action Items:*

   1. Other EWG members (Cisco, Intel, Labs) - send most important
      features for 1.3
   2. Tziporet - set a meeting with Redhat & Novell to close the new
      package definition
   3. Tziporet - publish OFED 1.3 schedule
   4. MPI people (DK, Jeff, Labs) - update your plans for OFED 1.3 -
      is there any specific requests toward SC07

*Detailed Minutes*

    * OFED 1.2.1 release:
          o Companies that are mostly interested in such release (e.g.
            IBM, Chelsio) will do most of testing for their HW.
          o Not all companies are committed to QA this release, so in
            the release notes we will mention this limitation.
          o There are weekly builds of OFED 1.2 branch. Any other
            build should be requested from Vlad.

    * OFED 1.2.c:
          o All agree its important to have this code stream, and why
            it cannot be the same as 1.2, and that we cannot wait for
            1.3.
          o There are companies that are currently using this code
            stream and this will prevent them to participate in QA of
            1.2.1

    * OFED 1.3:
          o There was a discussion if we wish to have the release on
            November 07 or January 08 (all agreed that December is not
            a good month)
          o Decision was to reduce features and have a release this
            year => November
          o There were no participants from the labs or MPI thus we
            lack information on important features that should be
            ready for SC07
