I've merged changes to many non-netinet protocols in support of the approaching socket/pcb reference model changes, but have the netinet changes depend on completing socket layer changes that are believed not to work with netatm as they stand. I'll be posting the socket and netinet changes to arch@ today; I've posted them previously to other lists, such as current@. Robert N M Watson
