.. and yet I haven't really seen that group in Intel participating in
the p2p discussions to design something that is mergable..

This is exactly why we so strongly discourage this out of tree stuff -
getting something unmergable in OFED is *NOT* Job Done, Time to Go
Home. Down this path just creates another Lustre mess.

Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> has been actively
participating in the p2p discussions, perhaps you can arrange some
internal collaboration..
