i was just looking through the mailings regarding your suggested changes
(e.g. in VLAN, DUMMY and IFB) an none of them currently went into the
kernel (..)
    

They are all in the net-2.6.23 tree.
  

Ah, ok - that wasn't on my radar as i missed the mail from Dave to you
at June 13th ...

@Dave: Please consider to schedule the PF_CAN stuff for inclusion into
2.6.23 also. Thx.

Btw. for next week, we'll ...

1. ... wait for Jamals feedback about skb->iif usage
2. ... move the vcan driver for the new netlink API

So that we can finally go for net-2.6.23 at the end of next week, if
there are no new issues from other reviewers until then.

@Patrick: The changes in dummy.c and ifb.c for the netlink support do
not look very complicated (not even for me ;-)) When these changes are
implemented, how do i create/remove my interfaces? Is there any
userspace tool like 'tc' for that?

Thx & regards,
Oliver
