Anyone examined NEWAX25 stuff to see if it is any better?
I'm sure I heard someone starting to port it to 2.4.
I'm happy to help on a clean-up exercise (based on the
either old or new ax25 code) but it's a big job and would
need a coordinated team effort.
It's been done with the user-mode stuff, and I think it
made a big difference to that. Maybe the same rigor applied
to the kernel stuff could weed out some of the funnies that
rear their heads now and then.
I still get unexplained things happening and I have to
brush them under the carpet when trying to woo someone
into runnig Linux as their AX25 system and I'd like to
be in a more confident position than that...
