I've put up a web site with a bunch of things folks here
might consider interesting.  All reachable from:

	http://vger.kernel.org/~davem

First, I'll take small notes on whatever I work on at:

	http://vger.kernel.org/~davem/blog.html

I'll try to update that once a day, but failing that atleast
once every two days unless I'm travelling.

I'm going to keep it largely technical, so apologies to all my fans
out there who want to know what my favorie color is or what music I
like to listen to. :-)

Also, I've begun to write an SKB tutorial, check it out at:

	http://vger.kernel.org/~davem/skb.html

Some parts are still not complete, but I'm finishing it as fast
as I can.  I intend to write something similar about various
aspects of the TCP code, if anything as a reference for myself. :-)

Something I've been thinking a lot about is SKB shrinking.
I think I've uncovered a potential mini-goldmine while comparing
SKBs to BSD MBUFs.  There is a discussion about this linked off
of the SKB tutorial at:

	http://vger.kernel.org/~davem/skb_redundancy.html

Finally, I intend to keep track of Linux networking TODO items
at:

	http://vger.kernel.org/~davem/net_todo.html

but currently that page is empty.  I'll at least jot down a
few items later this evening.
