As mentioned in README, this was submitted to the larger Ultra Ethernet consortium for consideration: > Deliver an Ethernet based open, interoperable, high performance, full-communications stack architecture to meet the growing network demands of AI & HPC at scale * https://ultraethernet.org https://ultraethernet.org
