Yes, i would be looking for automated tests for DCCP. I will definitely
try to give a look into that.

Wei,

Will it be possible to get this test suite inside LTP. If this is
possible, then i would require a mail from somebody with a DCO signoff,
that this is being contributed to LTP under GPLv2. We can then work out
a suitable place inside LTP to host it. You may also look in to the
following directory structure and suggest your opinion:

http://ltp.cvs.sourceforge.net/ltp/ltp/testcases/network/,

In any future release of this test suite, i can directly port the
improvements/enhancements from http://dccpct.sourceforge.net/ to LTP.
Let me know what you think about this.

Regards--
Subrata
