Re: [lwip-devel] Moving Layer4+ protocols to main git

[Joel Cunningham]

I like the idea, maybe an apps folder under src?

I am curious about what the criteria will be for accepting new apps.  It seems that applications using the RAW API are unique to LwIP, but applications written against the BSD sockets interface could work with other stacks and may not be very unique to LwIP.  Would apps lightweight in nature be enough for inclusion?

One final thought, we could potentially move the DHCP client into this folder since it is indeed a layer 5 protocol.  Other stacks implement the DHCP client (and server) outside of the TCP/IP stack itself.

That's the problem. People don't seem to think these things are
supported and so they don't use it (or don't even know it).

PS: sorry I haven't contributed much lately, I have a bunch of lwip

tasks open in the browser but I'm so busy!

Nothing to be ashamed of :-) - you've done a lot for lwIP since 1.4.x
already! Hopefully I'll issue a beta for 1.5.0 in the next days or
weeks, there aren't too many open issues that couldn't wait for 1.5.1+ I
think.
