AX.25 in 2.4 isn't stable without extra patches either.  There's a
patchset known as 9a4gl floating around which most users are quite happy
with - without 2.4 for serious use such as a mailbox or digipeater is
a no go.

At this late stage in the software lifecycle of 2.4 I won't try to
polish these patches into a shape that would make them acceptable for
kernel.org anymore - but if anybody else is interested I'd certainly give
my maintainer's approval.

Oh, and I've declared NET/ROM my next victim for a code overhaul now
that pure AX.25 in 2.6 seems stable enough for month of uptime and all
the important driver work except support for the PR-430 in the 6pack
driver has been submitted and accepted upstream.

73,

  Ralf
