I think the discussion on the mailing list is at an impasse and it won't be resolved there. I think the Tech Board needs to consider several issues:
- What are the requirements for a new PMD to be accepted? For example, you're asking for performance data in this case, when this hasn't been a requirement for other PMDs.
- Should there be different requirements for PMDs for virtual devices versus physical devices?
- Based on these criteria, should the AVP PMD be accepted or not?
