But a guidance on how we can move forward. If you can suggest someone, we can try to request them to have a look. The design of driver is just now standard NIC card. We removed the controversial plug in framework after your and Jamal's suggestion. Jamal already commented on the offload design of the driver and we addressed them in the last version. We can follow it up on any comments, suggestions quickly so do let us know. Regards, Santosh
