  56 Linux has very advanced Routing, filtering and traffic shaping options.
  57 This site attempts to document how to configure and use these features.

  77 This is a major release and as such some things are changing. We are no

  79 &amp; Shaping HOWTO', the canonical URL is <a
  80 href=http://ds9a.nl/lartc>http://ds9a.nl/lartc</a>. Bumped the version
  81 number to 0.9.0. Now is the time to help us spot mistakes, I'm going to push
  82 the HOWTO to the LDP somewhere next week, I want it to be perfect then. Oh,
  83 and we re-licensed under the Open Publication License, which increases
  84 your freedom as a user.

 123 <H2>LARTC Mailinglist</H2>
 124 It appears that the topic of our HOWTO is getting popular, so we decided to
 125 start a mailinglist dedicated to discussions about advanced routing &amp;
 126 shaping with Linux!
 127 <p>
 128 The advent of the Linux Advanced Routing &amp; Traffic Control list also
 129 means that questions asked privately will no longer be answered, as these
 130 answers benefit only single users. Asking questions on the list is far more
 131 net-friendly. So if you want to ask us a question, <a
 132 href=http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc>subscribe to the
 133 mailinglist</a>, and ask it! An <a
 134 href=http://mailman.ds9a.nl/pipermail/lartc/>archive</a> is also available,
 135 and google has picked it up as well.
 136 <p>
 137 <font color=#ff0000>Please note that due to excessive spam the list has
 138 become 'members only' - so please <a
 139 href=http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc>subscribe</a> first!</font>

 183 Like the Linux kernel, we have a jobs list. If you have any expertise
 184 in any of these areas, please pitch in.
 185 <ul>
 186 <li>Write terminology chapter based on
 187 <a
 188 href=http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-diffserv-model-06.txt>
 189 IETF draft</a>
 190 <li>Modify HOWTO to use this wording (mostly)

 200 This HOWTO is intended to be very much a <a
 201 href="http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/writings/cathedral-bazaar/">Bazaar</a> style development. If it
 202
 203 were to be any more open, bits would fall out.
 204 <p>
 205 A CVS tree is available. try this:
 206 <pre>
 207 $ export CVSROOT=:pserver:anon@outpost.ds9a.nl:/var/cvsroot
 208 $ cvs login
 209 CVS password: [enter 'cvs' (without 's)]
 210 $ cvs co 2.4routing
 211 cvs server: Updating 2.4routing
 212 U 2.4routing/2.4routing.sgml
 213 ...
 214 </pre>
 215
 216 If you made changes and want to contribute them, run 'cvs -z3 diff -uBb',
 217 and mail the output to <a href=mailto:howto@ds9a.nl>howto@ds9a.nl</a>, we
 218 can then integrate it easily. Thanks! Please make sure that you edit the
 219 .sgml, by the way, the other files are generated from that one.
 220
 221 The idea is that this HOWTO will be a cooperative effort, much like the
 222 Linux kernel itself.
