I'm surprised that this David (me) actually got through to the Goliath :)
Let me publicly thank Intel NIC team [and related persons] for some great work. You guys have really been responsive both to technical issues and also political/community-related issues like this one of opening docs.
This is a situation where I really think that opening docs will lead to a better overall user experience with Intel hardware on Linux, and hopefully serves as a model for other vendors to follow.
Thanks and kudos, Intel!
Jeff
