I feel sorry for my absence when I promised you all to work on the
networking, but suddenly I had a lot of work to finish before I get free
time again. I want to say you did a very great work! I tested trunk ISO a
couple of days ago, trying simple like downloading files using FireFox,
browsing web and it was so good experience.
I will ask Aleksey to update my branch, and I will pick up a different task
for ReactOS this time. Your OS really becomes usable, good work!

LwIP is in the final stage of testing, pending one bug
fix before all known
bugs are fixed. I would greatly appreciate everyone to try it and reply to
this email with the results of your tests. I've already tried many apps
including telnetd, chargen, and abyss web server, samba tng, and Opera 9.6.
During my testing, the lwIP implementation performed flawlessly. It handled
several chargen sessions while serving web pages and servicing open telnet
sessions plus being probed by nmap. The only thing that finally killed the
server was a pool leak that caused a win32k assert failure. I also ran a
BitTorrent download and it peaked at 2.3 MB/s down. Web browsing is an
absolute pleasure on lwIP. It really feels like I'm browsing on the host
system directly. There are no more stutters like oskit had. I'd encourage
everyone to try it. It's surprising how well it works especially since I
thought oskit was fairly good. My testing on lwIP has been perfect and I
hope everyone else has a similar experience. Please only report bugs that
don't also happen with oskit. Happy testing!
