Up to you of course, but I must say that I'm a bit surprised that you
state this so categorically at this stage. As far as I'm concerned,
there is still plenty of opportunity for cooperation on this, and I'm
still quite willing to accommodate your needs in libxdp.

I understand that they're different. Really, I do. That doesn't change
the fact that there will be two ways to install an XDP program, though.
Which is all I meant by "two APIs"; I was not implying they would be
completely equivalent in all ways.
