new feature reviews
Still aiming for ns-3.14:
- RED queues, mailing list post -> merged to ns-3-dev and is being kept there for now so as to not disturb the repository, but requires some relicensing of original BSD-licensed source before we should release it
- LTE, buildings, and antenna models: several review requests are here
- LTE merge is blocked by resolution of this issue
- Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) -> author is responding to some final comments
- Packet Tag List
- TCP Echo Code review here
Other:
- HTTP traffic generator -> reviewed, needs revisions
- DelayBox -> author responding to comments
- TDMA model -> sliding to ns-3.15?
- BRITE Integration -> sliding to ns-3.15?
- Poisson Pareto Burst Process -> sliding to ns-3.15?, author responding to comments
- CLWPR (Cross Layer, Weighted, Position-based, Routing) -> sliding to future
- CSMA module improvements -> sliding to future
- GPSR (Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing) -> Posted for pre-review, presently missing test suite.
- Switched Ethernet Device
- Finishing ns-3-click-mac extensions -> Blocked by queue API resolution
- TCP Options
- Antenna Model patch Author must rebase patch against Nicola's patch.
NSOC/GSOC code merges (seem to be slipping out of ns-3.14 timeframe):
- Monitor mode support (Update from Bjorn) -> sliding to ns-3.14
- LTE RRC extension -> sliding to ns-3.14
- UAN Mobility Model merge (from previous GSOC) -> sliding to ns-3.14
- blocked on resolving changes to WaypointMobilityModel API
