Code we have and users use which is unstable and crashes is more important to work on and fix than code we don't have which user's therefore don't use. You're wrong from just about every possible angle. Whoever finds AO useful will work on it, just as was the case with MD5 support. And right now, that "whoever" is definitely not us. :-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
