Alexander, to make it clear: we cannot include mechanisms which probably open other (security) issues. This is not how things work out. TCP had so many issues in the past - regarding security, implementation f*ups, etc. pp. It is utterly important that there is no problem with an extension. Please join the discussion ob tcpm if you will drive things forward. That's all what I can say - sorry! -- 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
