  That sounds reasonable to me.  

  I'd add one more thing.  To make the OFED release process go more
smoothly I'd like to see the maintainers for each stack component spin
out releases from time to time.  Roland has been doing this with
libmthca and libibverbs.  If we had the development releases for other
kernel and all user space components then OFED could simple combine the
latest development releases and start more through testing.

  Thoughts?
