The draft tends to lag reality. I believe what you refer to has been fixed. Refer to the slides at: http://www.zurich.ibm.com/~rha/netlink2.pdf ... Consider netlink2 as a distributed netlink. Beautiful, if you're going to allow this protocol to go over the wire, you have to choose a network byte order and swap in/out of it. Should be fun :) Unfortunately I see no mention of this issue in the slides, should I be scared?
