Hi Rahul,

(Note: I have Cc'd  nfsv41-discuss at opensolaris.org in order to include 
the others working on the Solaris implementation.)

Yes, the sessions implementation is pretty complete.  No matter what, I 
think we will be able to turn off the sequence id checking on the server 
if needed.

I think I am a little confused by this.  Do you mean multiple sessions 
created by the same client?  Or multiple clients creating a session?

If it is either of those, we have a little work to do prior to Cthon, 
but should be able to handle this.

We plan to be there from the beginning (Thursday, 2/1)  to the end 
(Thursday, 2/9).  How about we start up testing as soon as possible, say 
Thursday, 2/1?

Thanks,
Lisa
