Subject: Implementation of RFC 1149: IP over avian carriers.

Followup-To: comp.os.linux.misc
11 years ago, april 1st 1990, an important RFC was written, RFC 1149:
IP over avian carriers. To this day, as far as we know, no person has
implemented this RFC, yet it has been mentioned in numerous classes
and networking courses. That time has come to an end, and RFC 1149
will finally get its first implementation, brought to you by Bergen
Linux User Group and Vesta Pigeon Racing Club.
The CPIP WG was founded march 6th 2001, as a joint project between the
two mentioned groups. Since then, members of both clubs have been busy
with planning, experimentation and implementation. We're now so far
into the project that we feel confident that the technology is ready,
and the implementation will be finished in time.
The tentative date for the demonstration of the first implementation
and the transportation of the first packets over live pigeons is set
to april 28th. The place will be somewhere in Bergen, but due to risk
of interference in the transmission, the actual sites will not be
announced, at least not yet.
The WGs project web page is http://www.blug.linux.no/rfc1149/ - and on
this page, we'll put up minutes, plans, implementation details and in
due time, a report from the project.
