Re: I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-rddp-arch-03.txt

FYI, the changes in this most recent revision are very localized and reflect the
discussion from the document's Last Call around "shared receive queues". This
version restores the ddp_post_recv() and rdma_post_recv() which were introduced
in draft -01 (and removed in draft -02), along with some additional text clarifying
the behavior of ordering and resources on shared queues.

The relevant changes are in sections 2.1.2 and 2.1.3 around ddp_post_recv(),
and section 2.2.1 for rdma_post_recv().

Please post any comments on these additions to the list.

Tom.
