Hi folks,

Justin T Gibbs, during one of the Office Hours meetings that have been happ=
ening=20
throughout the year, spoke at some length on the subject of SMBv3 as it rel=
ates=20
to integraetion in the base system [1] - and suffice it to say, it's not ne=
arly=20
as simple as some people seem to asume that it is.

I hope that's somewhat helpful, and it's at least a little newer than what'=
s=20
referenced elsewhere.
