You have right to be confused :-) There is no (public) TCP/IP for ELKS
project and never was one. There were only few people claiming they
would do something but have vanished without a trace (or with some
excuse). People were enthusiastic about TCP stack but (IMO) noone got
anywhere near. No1 released their work so others could contribute so
that makes me think that they haven't achieved anything. But it is free
project, no1 was paying them so no1 can blame them for quitting.
I agree with them, ELKS in 2000 makes much less sense than it would in
1996 .. and that's the main reason some of them stopped from what i
know. Development of ELKS was similar to ln function .. it was
progressing quickly at he beginning but almost completely stopped later.
That's why i said the other day that ELKS (as a project) is dead. ELKS
(as source) is still avaliable to public and should remain that way.
