First I thought you were using that :). I heard about uIP, but this patchset have nothing to do with uIP ;-) At first I was naming the user mode network as "UNET" which is User mode NETwork, however, I though uip looks better because it is shorter. Anyway, if uip do cause confusion. I'd like to change this naming. > > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UIP_(micro_IP) -- Best Regards, Asias He
