Also, as KAME tree supports all 4 BSDs (Free, Open, + Net, BSD/OS) in single shared tree, it is not always possible to backport + FreeBSD changes into KAME tree. So again, please do not make cosmetic + changes. Even if you think it a right thing, that will bite KAME guys badly + during upgrade attempts, and prevent us from synchronizing two trees. + (you don't usually make cosmetic changes against third-party code, do you?) + +- REPORT CHANGES/BUGS TO KAME GUYS. + It is not always possible for KAME guys to watch all the freebsd mailing + list traffic, as the traffic is HUGE. So if possible, please, inform + kame guys of changes you made in IPv6/IPsec related portion. Contact + path would be snap-users@kame.net or KAME PR database on www.kame.net. + (or to core@kame.net if it is necessary to make it confidential) + +Thank you for your cooperation and have a happy IPv6 life! |
