Yes, in fact the stability and quality of the HTCP SACK speedup code is the only reason it didn't go into the upstream kernel first. I guess they really need something to write a research paper about, and something that's fixed upstream already doesn't serve that purpose so well for them. So much potentially good work gets lost this way, and I consider it absolutely rediculious. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
