MPTCP Kernel Developer

MPTCP Kernel Developer

[Brian Brandon]

Hello,

We're building a really cool MPTCP proxy but having issues getting it stable in the kernel. 

Anybody know a veteran Linux kernel developer available for some part time work? 

On skype as: zuit.net or via email brian@vUnity.com

Cheers,  

-Brian

David,

We have been successful building a new unreliable MPTCP and the RTT packet scheduler functions correctly with retransmits while discarding the acknowledgement (thereby avoiding the dreaded TCP Congestion Collapse.) However, we can't get it stable in the Linux kernel yet. 

We believe a scalable MPTCP proxy is of major significance and we're contributing everything we build back to the community. -- it's not some corporate headhunt stuff. We're honestly just stuck for now and didn't know where else to turn but back to the community for some help.

No idea why a proxy should be in linux kernel ...

Please do not top post on netdev.

Honestly, you should talk to MPTCP guys.

Octavian Octavian Purdila gave a talk about MPTCP in Ottawa last
February.

Please stop posting to the mailing list about this topic.

It is not appropriate to try and recruit developers here, please use
some other forum to do so.

If you continue to not abide by the list rules, I will have no choice
but to block you from posting altogether.

Thanks.
