I don't make any claims about it being better just newer and different. (I haven't cleanly splitted it up yet and right now I must go, so it's probably gonna be in the git tree this week, under the 'bestcomm' head ;) On 2 Feb 2006 19:37:34 -0000, Dale Farnsworth wrote: > In article <43E24DA6.9@freescale.com> John Rigby wrote: > > Adds fec support, requires bestcom patch.
