Sure I can release it. I've been working with the author of a new open
source license, the IPL. Basically the source is released and commercial
folks pay royalties to use. Just a small bit of protection from taking
code and making a bucketfull of money without compensating the authors.
I expect to make exactly nothing from it.

You can take a look at:

But honestly everything I'm using has open specifications. TCP/IP and SLIP
are well and publicly defined. Should be easy to implement from the specs.
In fact I plan to test just point to point. Only the multipoint protocol is
new.

Anyone can implement it directly from the specs.
