I think I'm going to be asking the same question Rich did in the other case.

What does it really mean that this is a converged NIC driver.  From what 
I can tell from both of these cases there is a physical bit of hardware 
that does two things.  Yet the drivers for these cases only mention the 
GLDv3 networking part.   So how are these different to other NIC drivers 
for things on the motherboard ?

Is there going to be a single driver for the GLDv3 part and the "other" 
part ?  What is the "other" part ?  If it is separate drivers then I 
don't see what the issue really is.

The only thing I can relate to is the vca(7D) driver for the SCA-4000 
that you were involved in.
