+      <p>Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is an extension to TCP that allows
+	for the use of multiple network interfaces on a standard TCP
+	session.  The addition of new addresses and scheduling of data
+	across these occurs transparently from the perspective of the
+	TCP application.</p>
+
+      <p>The goal of this project is to deliver an MPTCP
+	kernel patch that interoperates with the reference MPTCP
+	implementation, along with additional enhancements to aid
+	network research.</p>
+
+      <p>After a major re-design of the earlier prototype
+	implementation, the patch is again able to establish and carry
+	out multi-path connections that incorporate multiple addresses.
+	Improvements have also been made to path management and to code
+	handling the addition of subflows to a connection.</p>
+
+      <p>I have most recently added data-level re-transmission
+	support and am in the process of testing this.  I will soon be
+	in a position to start more extensive testing of the patch in
+	different multi-path scenarios, with plans for a public release
+	of v0.5 in May.</p>
