I have tried for a few years to get enough interested/qualified people
together to do this kind of system, but it just hasn't happened.
It feels like we are stuck in a loop: People and companies *do not*
want to work on drivers/infiniband because too often patches just die.
Asking people to work on it, and companies to fund work, gets met with
the above.
I think there is a broad agreement we need to change the system
here. So, lets hear from people and companies: put your name forward,
consistently provide time to do serious review work on all patches.
