Ross hi

It is getting late around here and I will not be pushing new trees
tonight, first thing tomorrow morning. (Your last push caused me lots
of extra work, you must not do like you did when working on a rebasing
out-off-tree project involving more then one person, but more on the proper
procedure tomorrow with the push of the trees)

So I hope you are not doing any big changes, do not apply any of my patches
just yet, wait for the new trees tomorrow please I have everything all ready
on top of the rename to pmem

Meanwhile without any explanations, these will come tomorrow, I'm attaching
the most interesting bit which you have not seen before.

If you want you can inspect a preview of what's to come here:
	http://git.open-osd.org/gitweb.cgi?p=pmem.git;a=summary

I have created a new pmem.git tree just for us.

Thanks
Boaz
