Re: [openss7] SCTP for 2.5 series

[Chuck Winters <cwinters@atl.lmco.com>]

Brian,
	I don't write the checks or make the decisions :(  I am going to try to
roll back the streams stuff into the 2.2.12 kernel.  From there maybe someone
will lend a hand in making the 2.5 stack.  I would certainly like to do that
although it looks as though I will have to do it on my own time :(

Later,
Chuck
