[Tipc-discussion] new unstable_ericsson on sourceforge cvs.

[Nicolas G. <lm...@er...>]

Hi everybody,

I made this morning (Friday) an import on the CVS server on sourceforge 
of the
new UNSTABLE_ERICSSON.  For now, it appears that it is not visible with
sourceforge's cvs browser tool, but it is there.

For those of you who wants to get it, checkout source/unstable_ericsson

I merged Jean-Guillaume's tipc-1.2.03 (containing his proc adaptation 
and Guo's multicast
functionality) with mine that contains the stream interface of tipc.

For those of you who wants to use the benchmark program with this version,
be sure that you don't create socket with SOCK_STREAM type unless you
really want to use the sock_stream interface.

The update from tipc-1.2.03 is
   + Multicast
   + Proc
   + socket stream interface
   + Change the license to BSD license.

Jon :
I forgot to update the description of socket interface in tipc.h, it 
will be done
this morning.
