Hi Christoph,

what do you expect for the DRBD changes? Usually, they fall into the
category: yes, obviously. When you are changing the block layer in
this way, then that is necessary for the in-tree DRBD code.

Regarding users: Yes, there are users of the in-tree DRBD code. Very
big corporations. And, yes, we see pressure building up that we get
our act together and re-sync the in-tree DRBD with the out-of tree
DRBD.

best regards,
 Phil
