ANNOUNCE: debloat-testing kernel git tree

“Announcement

“The bufferbloat project [1] is pleased to announce the
availability of the debloat-testing Linux kernel git tree:

git://git.infradead.org/debloat-testing.git

“The purpose of this tree is to provide a reasonably stable base
for the development and testing of new algorithms, miscellaneous
fixes, and maybe a few hacks intended to advance the cause of
eliminating or at least mitigating bufferbloat in the Linux
world.

“Introduction

“Bufferbloat is a term coined by Jim Gettys to describe the
increasing prevalence of large and (particularly) unmanaged network
buffers along the network links that comprise the Internet [2]. If
you are not aware of the problems with network latency under load
that the Internet is already encountering, we encourage you to
visit Jim Gettys’ blog [3]. There Jim has begun to fit together
enough puzzle pieces to at least frame the issue.”
