I honestly don't know if/when they will "fix it".  Really it's a "Feature 
Request", not a bug.

The developers must be very busy, as Peter (amongst others, I think) is 
typically pretty responsive and participates in the mailing-list.  He would 
probably be able to give you the best response as to where it is, and when we 
should fully expect it.

Best of luck.

  that is truly dissapointing to hear. are they planning on fixing it? and why 
do the graphs show traffic? still curious about my other questions about 
failover not working automatically

it was NOT there.

    Snippet of email RE 2.2 Beta 1 below:

    Yes, multiple uplinks are possible, in failover mode and/or up at the
    same time. Load balancing is not possible due to a problem with the
    current kernel.

      as far I know the new 2.2 version includes load balancing. When i tested 
it I could see in vmware traffic going through all interfaces and the graphs 
reflected traffic going through all int's as well.

        Unless this has changed very, very recently (and I would love to hear 
it), there is no outbound load balancing for multiple RED uplinks.  There is 
automated failover, but no load balancing.

        It's a feature request I have been begging for, and would really 
round-out the uplink features substantially.

          By my understanding of the text the load balancing is for balancing 
lan 
          connectivity to the internet ie u have 2 adsl lines and want to 
spread 
          the load of interested access across the two lines. to load balance 
          between to http servers or any other for that matter would require 
dns 
          load balancing or one incoming line connecting to a load balancing 
          server in front of the servers. I'm open to correction but thats the 
          short story ..
