Fwd: Re: oVirt - Infiniband Support / Setup

[Karsten 'quaid' Wade]

There is developer interest in this Infiniband support offering. I think
we can support making this happen through the Infra team, especially if
we can get someone to commit to maintaining the relationship and
figuring out the interoperation details.

Alexander - do you want to run with this?

In addition to getting you working on Gerrit, this Infiniband work can
be another part of your "journey" toward being a formal maintainer on
the Infra team.

Since there could be interest and need, +1 for integrating this with
oVirt via the Infra team.

Alexander, do you want to take on coordinating this? Do you know if your
friend is interested in being a formal sponsor of the project through
this mechanism?
