You're aware that they are being upstreamed by David Disseldorp and Mike Christie, right? You don't have to uplift patches from our backported SLES kernel ;-) Also, curious why you based this on Hammer; SUSE Enterprise Storage at this point is based on Jewel. Did you experience any problems with the older release? The newer one has important fixes. Is this supposed to be a separate product/project forever? I mean, there are several management frontends for Ceph at this stage gaining the iSCSI functionality. And, lastly, if all I wanted to build was an iSCSI target and not expose the rest of Ceph's functionality, I'd probably build it around drbd9. But glad to see the iSCSI frontend is gaining more traction. We have many customers in the field deploying it successfully with our support package. OK, not quite lastly - could you be convinced to make the source code available in a bit more convenient form? I doubt that's the preferred form of distribution for development ;-) A GitHub repo maybe?
