A different question, on SGI's STP for Linux

Hi,

Another quick question, chasing the ones on QoS. At
one point, SGI had an intriguing prototype
implementation of something called the "Scheduled
Transfer Protocol" for Linux. Sadly, this project
seems to have vanished into the mists. I -think- I
have a copy, somewhere, that I downloaded from the
Open Source projects site.

I presume, from the fact that nobody else seems to
have picked it up, that STP isn't as useful as it
sounds. Is it something that would be worth
forward-porting to a recent kernel, or is it more of a
dead-end approach that can be done as well by other
means?

Jonathan
