I am not working on SD full time. It is virtually my spare time. And
feature development of Sheepdog has nothing to do with my employer.

That said, we (the community) will work on the connection restarting
problem first, on top of which we can enable multi-connection feature.
No fixed time table yet. You know, there are many features, such S3 &
Swift API support, iscsi support etc.,  requested by users besides bug
fixes and stabling stuff.

Thanks,
Yuan
