We decided to wait for another week to fix the PPC issue.
New schedule is:
* RC5 next Monday - May 11
* GA Thu May 14


2. OFED 1.5 schedule
Release is delayed by a month. 
We do not wish to delay any more since we wish to have one major OFED
release each year and we want the new OFED release before SC09
Kernel base will stay 2.6.30

This is the new schedule is:
        Feature Freeze: Jun 7, 09
        Alpha Release:  Jun 12, 09
        Beta Release:   Jun 9, 09
        RC1:                 Jul 25, 09
        RC2-RCx: About every 2 weeks as needed
        We usually have ~6 RCs
        Release:            Oct 15, 09

Note: Jeff S. suggests that we drop MPI from the OFED package. We will
discuss this after 1.4.1 release.


3. MPI new memory API
We will have next week a special meeting on this subject. Jeff will
prepare the meeting.
