A few years back, sombody (Rick Ace?) was working on implementing
telnet in the kernel. As I remember, all you had to do was put in some
fairly trivial code to patch a couple of sockets together and check for
IAC's, deferring to the user-level telnet server to deal with these. It
was supposed to be a major efficiency win, even if it was a layering
violation. Anybody know whats up with that work lately?
