[Announce]: Target_Core_Mod/ConfigFS and LIO-Target v3.0 work

["Nicholas A. Bellinger" <nab@linux-iscsi.org>]

Greetings all,

I recently patch-bombed the LIO-devel list with two different series of
patches against my work in the lio-core-2.6.git tree on kernel.org.  Not
wanting to spam the kernel lists with these patches (not yet anyways :-)
I am posting the links to the patch series so that interested parties
could have a look at the current progress.  The code is currently
running on v2.6.28-rc7 and will continue to be tracking linux-2.6.git.  

Things are moving quickly for Target_Core_Mod/ConfigFS and LIO-Target
v3.0 development, and I invite folks to have a look at the code.  To
dive into the rest of the v3.0 code via git-web, check out:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/nab/lio-core-2.6.git;a=tree;f=drivers/lio-core

They are made against against lio-core-2.6.git/master and tested on
v2.6.28-rc7.
