+      <p>The Mellanox &os; team is proud to announce support for the
+	ConnectX-4 series of network cards in &os; 11-current and &os;
+	10-stable.  These devices deliver top performance, with up to
+	100GBit/s of raw transfer capacity, and support both Ethernet and
+	Infiniband.  Currently, the Ethernet driver is ready for use and
+	the Infiniband support for ConnectX-4 is making good progress.  We
+	hope that it will be complete before &os; 11.0 is released.  For
+	more technical information, refer to the <tt>mlx5en(4)</tt> manual
+	page in 11-current.  The new driver for ConnectX-4 cards is called
+	<tt>mlx5</tt> and is put under <tt>/sys/dev</tt> and not under
+	<tt>/sys/ofed</tt> as was done for the previous
+	<tt>mlx4</tt> driver.  The <tt>mlx5en(4)</tt> kernel module is
+	compiled by default in GENERIC kernels.</p>
