I'm not Roland, but my belief is that until RNIC-PI exists as working
code on a reference implementation, it is in fact not yet relevant
to Linux. Perhaps you can outline the schedule to get there?

I will point out that Roland's "science project" driver, which forms
the base for the current OpenIB implementation, was released to
the community on May 17, 2004 - one year ago.

It is my assertion* that OpenRDMA must work with, and within,
OpenIB to create a single RDMA implementation for Linux, in order
to create the best and broadest support, as early as possible.
Ok, so the names are a little upside-down. :-)

Tom.
