I don't think anyone is in a hurry, but I'll be sure to send out a
heads-up if I find time to start working on this in the next week or so.
I think it's yours, though, Alex, unless Bian is going to follow up on
it again.

All things being equal, I would rather integrate a patch from Bian than
do it myself both from a practical point of view and because I always
prefer to have more contributors.  So Bian, this is my saying that if
you're willing to do another version of drbd updated based on the
comments received so far and want to submit it to the meta-networking
tree, I'd be happy to have it.

If not, I understand, and the remainder of us can sort it out, I'm sure,
but my first instinct is to wait to see if the original submitter is
interested in pursuing this.
