Comment 1 Andrius Benokraitis 2008-08-19 14:55:16 UTC
Hi David, this is very late - Tom/Marcus, do you think this can go in post-Beta?

Comment 2 Marcus Barrow 2008-08-19 16:30:08 UTC

Sure this can go in port Beta.

A patch for code deletion should be easy to review and apply though. I'm sure we're happy either way and it shouldn't effect the testing much.

Comment 3 Andrius Benokraitis 2008-11-06 14:22:19 UTC
Deferring to 5.4 per comments from QLogic. Not urgent.

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2009-02-16 15:14:23 UTC
Updating PM score.
