SubjectRe: libaio 0.3.90 -- test release for sync up
Ben,

Any updates on when we can see some more "core" aio code for 2.5 ?

Is the code you've been developing substantially the same as in 2.4 ?
From a brief examination of the 2.4 aio code for raw I/O, it doesn't
look like it'll need a whole lot of changes except to use bio's. Or do
you have a different design in place now ?

Any comments/dates will be much appreciated....
