I feel frustration but only at the lack of my own ability to not being
smart enough to upstream myself. Testing is all I seem to be able to
contribute at the moment.

for the best fit. I know the SMB2 work from Nexenta is like this.
Again,
it's not
done to screw the community, it's done because they have paying
customers
who want it, and they know who's writing their paychecks.
I don't think anybody thinks any of the distributions are screwing the
community :), they've released their code changes, which is really the
only
obligation they have. Particularly for changes like the Nexenta SMB2
stuff,
they are so complicated and divergent from upstream it's really
difficult
to get them in, and it's understandable particularly for a commercial
company that it's not a high priority. While I certainly might whine
and
sigh and say stuff like "I wish those SMB2 updates would get
upstreamed" I'm
not blaming anybody for not doing it :).
I'm sure I speak for everybody on the list that we really appreciate
all of
the work you do, particularly the help and support you provide above
and
beyond the responsibilities of your day job, and in no way expect you
to do
everything for everybody ;). Thanks!
