Taken off-list, just wanted to say sorry to the rest of you for my earlier
annoyed response to Shentino, it shouldn't have been on the list either. I'll
try to be more careful with that.

I would however like to clarify my original question, just to make sure
everyone understands what I am asking exactly.

First the background:

I am going to split the network package in a kernel and driver part. This is a
given, and motivated by Dworkin seperating the driver and kernel as well, not
to mention that it makes life a bit easier for me.

My question concerns how exactly I will deal with the kernel part.

Option 1

Take the current code, update it to kernel lib 1.3, and leave it there. This
would first of all serve as an example. Code would be available under the
current license (essentially the dgd license)

Option 2

Redevelop the kernel lib part based on the current kernel library 1.3. This
code can be public domain, and could serve a lot more purposes as a result.

Obviously, option 2 is much more time consuming, and I am only going to do
this if I find there is sufficient interest in using a network enabled version
of the kernel library.
