All:

iSER and SRP are not the same. iSER (along with iWARP) is a potential replacement for
SRP. It just turns out that there are a lot more SRP initiators and devices out there
than iSER right now. If we want to play in the IB attached storage arena right now, then
SRP is the name of the game.

Folks,

We have posted preliminary binaries and documents to the 
http://opensolaris.org/os/project/srp web page. We are in the process of 
stepping though the code and compiling for sparc etc....  We are 
currently "unhiding" the web page, but you can see it now by pointing 
directly to the URL.

We invite active participation, comments, unit testing or other wise.  I 
expect another drop of the source in the next couple of days and will 
post source by the end of this year.

...for those of you mystified as I was.
    

I was mystified too.  I think SRP is too confusable.  I recommend a
different acronym.  What's wrong with "iSER" as a project name anyways?
