New features are generally discouraged in the -stable branch, but of course all things are also relative. The biggest reason that new features are discouraged is because they tend to perturb the system in ways that make it very hard to ascertain whether it's still "stable" anymore. If your proposed changes have a very low impact on the rest of the networking subsystem, low enough that you feel very confident about the stability of the resulting system, let's talk some more about it. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
