Hi Mat,

Why is the following a requirement for the initial implementation

"Move away from meta-sockets, treating each subflow more like a regular 
TCP connection. The overall MPTCP connection is coordinated by an upper 
layer socket that is distinct from tcp_sock."

This can be done later.

Really, IMHO meta socket is not the cause of MPTCP being intrusive. We 
can discuss this requirement later, perhaps an example will help.

Matthieu -

Yes, I appreciate your offer to help with the wiki content!

While I initially set up the meetings page with links to the mailing list 
archive, that doesn't have to remain the format forever. Framapad's 
real-time collaboration features are nice during the meeting. For posting 
the minutes afterward, the mailing list archive does not seem to be 
regularly indexed by the common search engines so the wiki might be a good 
place to host the minutes.

Hi Rao,

The idea is to make the MPTCP changes less invasive to TCP by isolating 
the socket-level changes in separate MPTCP-specific socket code. I think 
"less invasive to TCP" is an important goal from the start.

Hi Mat,

Thank you for this!

I just updated this page to refer to this new wiki:
http://multipath-tcp.org/pmwiki.php/Developer/Upstreaming

I can maintain the "Meeting" section if it is OK for you. And help trying
to maintain the rest up to date.

Regards,
Matthieu

Hello -

I've set up a wiki for our project:

https://github.com/multipath-tcp/mptcp_net-next/wiki

To start with I've added some information that was otherwise buried in our 
mailing list archives. This includes a summary of what the community has 
shared so far, meeting information, and pointers to relevant resources.

Regards,
