+=================

This is the current BETA release of the Linux Kernel SCTP reference
-implementation.
+implementation.

SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol) is a IP based, message oriented,
reliable transport protocol, with congestion control, support for
transparent multi-homing, and multiple ordered streams of messages.
RFC2960 defines the core protocol. The IETF SIGTRAN working group originally
-developed the SCTP protocol and later handed the protocol over to the
-Transport Area (TSVWG) working group for the continued evolvement of SCTP as a
-general purpose transport.

The initial project goal is to create an Linux kernel reference implementation

-referred to as the UDP-style API of the Sockets Extensions for SCTP, as
-proposed in IETF Internet-Drafts.
