Hi Linuxers!

We're starting with STREAMS for Linux development.
Here is the project entry.

The utopia'd be full SVR4 STREAMS with a good DDI/DKI interface to provide
easy porting from SVR4 to Linux as far as possible.


Title:          5LiS - "Linux  STREAMS"
Desc1:          LiS is a STREAMS framework which will be like
Desc2:          SVR4 STREAMS. You'll be able to use multiplexing and will have
Desc3:          a development aid: the Linux STREAMS modules testbeds.
Desc4:          Good to do networking and other things.

CurrentStat:    just booting. Some code written.
ETA:            optimal:Aug,95  conservative:Dec,95
Remarks1:       Would enjoy to hear comments from the  kernel guys.
Remarks2:       We are beginning w/ an implementation. Will set up an

FTS that one related job is to integrate LiS with a kind of DDI/DKI - like
interface.

Hope to hear from you soon, ;)
