I cannot asses what you could gain this way (do Ethernet IP devices
provide real-time qualities via UDP/TCP?), but porting that stack over
RTnet's UDP/TCP services should be feasible. The portability layer of
opener looks rather thin and should be well covered by Xenomai's POSIX
skin. However, our TCP implementation is still fresh, so you /may/ run
into some of it current limitations. If you find such quirks, please let
us know.
