Now that lustre 2.7 is coming up soon I like to open the discussion on one of the directions we could go. Recently several projects have sprung up that impact liblustreapi. During one of those discussion the idea of a new liblustreapi was brought up. A liblustreapi 2.0 you could say. So I like to get feel in the community about this. If people want this proposal I like to recommend that we gradually build this new library along side the original liblustreapi and link it when necessary to the lustre utilities. First I like the discussion of using the LGPL license with this new library. I look forward to the feed back.
