As for IP, as far as I know, there has been no change to any of the bylaws or other members agreements. If there is some specific provision that concerns you, please bring it to our attention -- the IBTA in general and the IBTA steering committee in general have been very supportive of the OpenIB effort. In fact, most of the IBTA steering commitee companies (Agilent, HP, IBM, InfiniCon, Intel, Mellanox, Sun, Topspin, and Voltaire) have been active participants in OpenIB development. I would hope we can resolve any issues relating to open source and the Linux kernel.
Read the member agreement :) It -explicitly- does -not- require waiving of patent claims related to any implementation of IB.
That's different from ATA, SCSI, USB, the list goes on...
