Proposed agenda for 2005-03-18 transport teleconference

Action items from last call:

* Stanislav will pursue Internet2 WG status.

* Steven to release a new version of the API document.  [ETA: 2005-03-18.]

  - x_sockerror(LAST_ERROR) for library-specific errors of x_select().

  - Statistics include availability of data.

  - x_socket() to include a last argument of (X_SOCKET *) type for
    applications that want to manage memory allocation or avoid
    malloc(); can be NULL, in which case the library will malloc().

  - Max library datagram size can be large; e.g., an unsigned 32-bit
    quantity.  (Gu: 32 bits is too much)

  - A flag to tell the library whether to set DF or use PMTUD (for
    performance reasons, it might make sense to force local IP
    fragmentation so that the number of context switches is reduced).

  - A way to configure underlying send() size (Gu: Windows
    performance improves when send() size is 1024 bytes).

* Gu will collect his ``gotchas'' on programming with Windows.  [ETA:
  2005-03-18.]

* Steven will collect his ``gotchas'' on programming with Windows.
  [ETA: 2005-03-18.]

* Stanislav will pursue a contact at Microsoft to help with Windows
  porting.  [ETA: 2005-03-18.]

* Group to discuss name / value of the tool within the API (tied to
  project name).  [Continued.  On hold.]
