[Tuexen Michael] I do not understand your question. There
are NO versions of the SCTP RFC. We are currently numbering the
prereleases of the prototype in that range. The latest available
is pre17.

[Tuexen Michael] We have implemented RFC 2960. The next version
supports the checksum ID and the PR-SCTP ID. It will pre18 and also
contain a lot of bug fixes. For pre19 we are planning to include
support
for AddIP. What does compatibility means? Since we always try to be
compliant to RFC 2960 they should be able to interwork. Regarding the
API we try to keep modifications small.

[Tuexen Michael] A general comment: This is NOT an official Siemens
version. The prototype which is in the publically available is done
in cooperation between Siemens and the University of Essen. Please
note
also, it is a prototype, not a product. As I mentioned above, we do
have
plans. pre18 should be available soon. It depends on the number of
bugs
the encounter during testing or get reported by our users (which we
appreciate very much). We release a version when we do not know of
any bugs.

Thanks.
