I would not be that much against a project like this (with preferences
towards SSH). Sure, such a project would be very much a bleeding edge
one thanks to the bleeding edge networking stack (both versions), but on
the other hand, the TCP part is already rewritten and it can handle
normal traffic. The proposal could be modified so that whenever there
occurs a roadblock in the form of a buggy networking stack, the proposal
would redirect the student to help debug and fix the problem. From this
point of view, it would make sense to work with the new stack only. How
about that?
