    Well, I think that we need to make some kind of PR push about ECN. Linux
    right now has enough clout and respect to be able to be used as a
    'Technology Push' argument - and it shouldn't be that hard. Write some
    articles on how Linux is innovating, and how Cisco and others are standing
    in the way of progress.
