Subject: Gentle Guide to the Network Stack

Hi all,

I started putting together a paper on the Linux network stack,
focusing on how things fit together, and help relative beginners
understand the machinery, rather than giving a full-blown highly
detailed cross reference (which would be outdated more quickly
than you can re-run latex anyway :-)
I intend to release it under the GPL or GNU FDL or similar license -
I haven't fully made up my mind yet on what works best.

You can find the first couple of pages at
http://oss.oracle.com/~okir/network/paper.pdf

I'd be very interested in general feedback on the approach taken,
the level of detail and such. In case I missed the fact that
someone else is currently doing the same, please let me know, too.

Cheers,
Olaf
