Hi Neel,

If you are brave enough to leave the (mostly) stateless domain of L3 packet 
handling, and take on the challenge to tip your toes into the unforgiving realm 
of stateful L4 transport protocols, that would certainly be an area where every 
helping hand counts.

E.g. Rod has recently found some quite dated Diffs, around TSO, which would 
probably need some love (reviews and validation): 

D6611
D6612
D6656

(There are many more semi-abandoned Diffs waiting on reviews.freebsd.org; and I 
also have a few Diffs for new functionality waiting for someone willing to read 
into the RFCs and confirm that the code performs as intended, around RFC6675, 
ECN+/ECN++, ...)

If this is something for you, there are also biweekly transport calls happening 
(should be in your evening) - and anyone wanting to join is welcome.

Best regards,

Richard Scheffenegger

Hi freebsd-net@,

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this.

In case you were wondering, I am responsible for patches like r357092 
(IPFW/libalias RFC6598, original idea), r363403 and r362900 (related to routing 
KPI, suggested by melifaro@).

However, despite my current accepted code, I am dry of ideas. At the same time, 
I'd love to work with kernel code, especially the network code.

Sadly, the Wiki is dreadfully out-of-date.

Is there any things I could work on in the FreeBSD networking stack? Any things 
you committers need help with?

Best,

Neel Chauhan
