At least not for me! It's been fun working with you all, and wonderfully productive... but I'd like to get off of top ramen. Are there things in the above, in the context of making home networking safer/smarter/faster/better, that could apply? Or any context, really? (benchmarking? simulation work) I did submit a proposal elsewhere for the "make fair queuing work well with vpns" idea that I proposed on this list earlier this month, rather than sit down and spend the time to actually do it... ... and I am looking over various other SBIR and NSF style grants. ... and trying to figure out what to do next year, that makes sense. --=20 Dave T=C3=A4ht [1] I would really like to find a way to partner up formally with a uni or = two. http://www.bufferbloat.net/projects/bloat/wiki/Upcoming_Talks
