61 The syncppp drivers in Linux provide a fairly complete
62 implementation of Cisco HDLC and a minimal implementation of
63 PPP. The longer term goal is to switch the PPP layer to the
64 generic PPP interface that is new in Linux 2.3.x. The API should
65 remain unchanged when this is done, but support will then be
66 available for IPX, compression and other PPP features

84 Currently we do not end all packets with the correct Cisco multicast
85 or unicast flags. Nothing appears to mind too much but this should
86 be corrected.
