I'm still alive. It's great to hear that one of the most talented FreeBSD hackers is back in business :) Does this means that you can afford some time to investigate the problems regarding your old software? I mean ng_fec primarily, because I couldn't get help in the past few months/years(?)... You may know, or not it is now part of FreeBSD, the only problem is that it does not work. I filed a PR (kern/46720) about a month ago, but haven't gotten too much response back. On these lists I think there is a consensus (search the archives :) that the FEC implementation is a good thing. Another problem, which I faced years ago that if you want to use .1q tagged packets on a FEC interface, it just does not works. There are more verbose details on these lists too. Are there any chances to get these fixed?
