NetBSD Networking Roadmap
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
This is a small roadmap document, and deals with the networking
|
|
side of the operating system.
|
|
|
|
The following projects are expected to be included in NetBSD 6.0
|
|
|
|
1. Mobile IPv6
|
|
2. SCTP
|
|
3. network driver polling
|
|
4. ALTQ processing on input
|
|
5. integrated multicast dns / zeroconf
|
|
6. tcp support in libsa
|
|
7. netboot from http
|
|
|
|
We currently expect to branch 6.0 in the March 2010 timeframe, with a view
|
|
to a 6.0 release later in 2010.
|
|
|
|
We'll continue to update this roadmap as features and dates get firmed up.
