There's nothing public about this. The only feedback is by the recent reject of the later versions of the package from NEW (where it ended up because of the package rename). I've asked for additional details, but I wouldn't recommend holding your breath until more info appears. Please note the changes I've already done in the package git repo on alioth collab-maint. More improvements are probably needed until we reach a good enough state though. I'm willing to help on this point. I might have some time this WE to start looking at it.

Re: Bug#705169: RFH: iproute2 -- networking and traffic control tools
Hello again! Given the very positive response on my RFH I'm following up with one more wish I forgot to mention. If you are interested in learning more about the advanced networking features provided by the linux kernel. Want to get into the gory details and learn stuff that not many other people (who aren't kernel hackers) know about. Why not take on the task to look at improving the manpages for iproute2? There are many bugs collected about pieces of information missing from manpages in the debian bug tracker at http://bugs.debian.org/src:iproute Start investigating, see what you find, try out stuff document your results in the manpage for everyone else to enjoy! -- Andreas Henriksson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
