:Great!  Does this mean you'll be fine-graining the ATM stack for us?

Heheh, *sigh* Im realizing how much work there really is to be done in 5.x
:-)

Currently, this actually has been on the end of my list of things to do...
I've been wanting to clean up the HARP code so taht we can then clean out
the hea and hfa (like Matthew Dodd started doing) so that we can share
these drivers amongst the few ATM stacks we have (or will have).  I
believe Matthew and a few others on -atm mailing list are also wanting
this to occur as well.  Basically we've had no real plan of action just a
want to have the code a bit less ugly.

So, I am not sure what to say, I haven't put much thought about what it
will take to do it.  Perhaps we can put this up on the SMP todo list?
While it's a very large item for the list, as things kind of come together
with the ATM code, we can break that bullet item down into something a bit
more realistic.

Sorry for a lame answer, but perhaps I can come up with some more
information for you when I try to put together a few notes on the ATM code
(where are we?  where are we going?  why?) that might get this going.

Cheers,
Andrew
