From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Patrick Farrell Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2015 14:36:40 -0500 Subject: [lustre-devel] DNE2 feature patch landing In-Reply-To: <1435865147.2548.26.camel@intel.com> References: <1435865147.2548.26.camel@intel.com> Message-ID: <559592C8.2090905@cray.com> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: lustre-devel@lists.lustre.org Speaking for myself (IE, not on behalf of my employer), strongly endorsed. While the feature freeze is important, there's a good reason for the slight slippage here, and this is an important feature. I have no issue with slight slippage as long as a serious, good faith effort was made with a realistic plan to hit the cutoff, as I think is the case here. - Patrick On 07/02/2015 02:25 PM, Henwood, Richard wrote: > All, > > Last week a patch landed conflicting with the DNE2 project that was > preparing to land for 2.8: > http://wiki.lustre.org/Projects > > The DNE2 feature patches were rapidly re-based, re-reviewed and prepared > again for landing.
