Well, what would change your mind?
I don't really care, as I maintain just one Linux router which routes substantial bandwidth and which could easily be protected by upstream ACLs in the case of an emergency. Others rely on Linux routers for their ISP business, and they see similar problems as well, and these people *do* care about this problem. Some of them contacted me and told me that they were ignored when they described it. They certainly want this problem to be fixed, as using FreeBSD is not always an option. 8-( - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
