This seems like a good idea. Use the mailing list to issue problems and
features,
and then after much reviewing forward the changes into the current tree.

Thanks for your trust. I am not familiar with the TCP part of the stack
though;
the rest has become rather familiar with me.

I think Paul has a major point in the complexness of the dynamic memory
management
issues, especially regarding the TCP part of the code, and the resulting
flakiness.

However, I think this is the best available open-source TCP/IP project I
have seen, so
it's definately worth every effort to make it rock stable.

Leon.
