 Current state of this project:
 Grade:         production, working on more than 40 hosts from June 2000,
                city-wide ISP network
 OS version:    3-STABLE from 8 January 2000 - this version currently used
                in our production routers/hosts
 Capabilities:  guaranteed low bandwidth, maximum bandwidth, priority can be
                set for queue, traffic classification and bandwidth management
                realized by separate netgraph nodes.

 Since I currently have high workload, I dont have time to port it to 4.x or
 5-CURRENT...
 Conclusion: volunteer required for this work... and I can consult him/her.
