On the other hand, combining everything into one package limits the ability of the maintainer of the individual components to release packages with simple bug fixes or enhancements that are component specific and don't require kernel core or libibverbs changes. Thus, they would have to wait till a new combined package gets released and makes the maintainer of that package the bottleneck for getting new code out. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
