		ALTQ -- Version 2.1

						December 29, 1999

This is a release of Alternate Queueing for BSD UNIX.  ALTQ provides
queueing schemes required to realize resource-sharing and quality of
service.  The ALTQ release is intended to be a flexible platform to
promote network research and gain field experience.

What's New since version 2.0:
	- altqstat: discipline independent stat program
	- improved link-sharing performance for ethernet
	- rsvp support using CBQ and HFSC
	- FreeBSD-3.4R based.  2.2.8R and 3.3R are also supported.
	- initial support of OpenBSD-2.6 (in addition to NetBSD-1.4.1)
		only i386 architecture is supported

IMPORTANT CHANGES since 2.0:
	directory reorganization:
	as we now have multiple platforms and the number of disciplines is
	increasing, it is time to reorganize the directory configuration.

	  1. a new kernel directory, "sys-altq/altq", is created.
	     altq kernel files previously placed under "net" and "netinet"
	     are moved into "sys-altq/altq".

	     ***THIS CHANGE AFFECTS ALL 3RD PARTY SOURCE CODE***
	     please update #include path!
	     (e.g., #include <netinet/altq.h> --> #include <altq/altq.h>)

	  2. a device file directory, "/dev/altq", is create.
	     altq device files previously placed under "/dev" are moved
	     into "/dev/altq".
	     (e.g., /dev/cbq --> /dev/altq/cbq)
	     ***DON'T FORGET TO RUN MAKEDEV.altq***

	  3. discipline specific programs are no longer required.
	     they are placed under "legacy-tools" directory.

	because of the above changes, sources (and binaries) for altq-2.0
	are NOT COMPATIBLE with altq-2.1.

The following items are still missing in 2.1.
 - more drivers for NetBSD
 - cpu architecture other than i386
