Hello Christoph,

Can the precompiled debian/ubuntu-packages be used for MPTCP performance evaluation ?, i.e., is MPTCP performance the same with the precompiled debian/ubuntu-packages and an MPTCP version compiled from the source-code ?

Regards,

Luis Montalvo

Subject: [mptcp-dev] Stable Linux Kernel Release

Hello all,

we are happy to announce the first stable release of the Linux Kernel implementation of MultiPath TCP.

We at UCLouvain decided to make periodic stable releases of the Linux Kernel implementation of MPTCP, to provide users a "stable-point" which they can rely on.
Three times a year we will make a release before each IETF meeting. Each release is maintained with bugfixes until the next IETF meeting. New features will only be available in the upcoming release.

As we are now having the 86th IETF meeting, this MPTCP release is version 0.86. To download the source, please visit:
http://multipath-tcp.org/pmwiki.php?n=Main.Release86

You can install MPTCP by compiling the source-code on your own, use the precompiled debian/ubuntu-packages or install it on your Android smartphone with our precompiled images.

Please visit www.multipath-tcp.org for general info about the MPTCP implementation.

We would like to thank all contributors who provided code to this project
