Our product is a TCP/IP accelerator for satellite communications please see http://www.xiplink.com/technology/xiplink_technology-datasheet.html. Also, please see http://www.scps.org/scps/ for an explanation of our Transport layer implementation. BTW, The marketing dep has renamed T/TCP to fast start and we actually made some modifications to FreeBSD's T/TCP but the rfc1644 principles are the same.

Especially from a code and security perspective. We have always appreciated BSD Engineering process and I believe that until we get to see FreeBSD 6.x STABLE we will be more then ready. > > > We couldn't find anyone using it... > > what is your product? > > > -- Karim Fodil-Lemelin Lead Programmer Xiphos Technologies Inc.
