Thanks, Ed. You have seconds. I'll contact you offline to get
you set up.

The T10 SCSI OSD specification defines a command protocol that allows data to be
stored and managed as logical objects rather than as blocks of data.  We would
like to propose an opensolaris project to provide support in Solaris for OSD
devices.  This will consist of the utilities, programming APIs, device drivers,
and relevant kernel changes needed to support devices that implement the T10 OSD
command set.

The T10 OSD model provides a number of advantages over the aging block-based
storage model in areas such as performance, scalability, and security. Storage
vendors are currently developing storage devices that support the T10 OSD
protocol, and OSD support for other operating systems is under development.

The OSD team members are:
  Harriet Coverston
  Eric Taylor
  Ed Nadolski
  Rob Gittins
  Anton Rang
  Andrew Hastings
  Brian Reitz
  Omer Asad

The T10 OSD spec is at: http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/drafts/osd/osd-r10.pdf
