Hi Greg, Thanks a lot for the document. That has really given us a hope that OHSM can really make its way to the kernel. I have replied to theodore and have added you, manish and peter too in the thread. Thanks Again, We will be releasing all the design docs and the POC code. Actually we never formalized stuffs coz we never thought people would ever like it. Thanks.
