The RBridges project is now open:

  http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/rbridges/

This project, based on research by Radia Perlman, will deliver a new
bridging mechanism into OpenSolaris.  This will implement the
protocols now under development in the IETF's TRILL working group.

We're at the very beginning of the effort -- just now scoping out what
work we'll do, and how we'll do it -- but it's obvious that there's a
lot of work to be done here.  If you're interested in participating,
now is the time to start reading the (lengthy) background information
and thinking about what parts interest you.

General discussion about RBridges and TRILL on Solaris should, for
now, go to the networking-discuss@opensolaris.org mailing list.  The
development team will meet on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing
list (open archives, but closed membership).
