main code
---------
we have a tiny deviation from IEEE 802.1d: we don't kill the awaiting-tx skb
  queue when a port leaves the FORWARDING state
RH initscripts for setting up bridge interfaces automatically
bridge ID change notifications
for 2.4: module_author and module_description
smarter fdb timeout scheme
slab cache for fdbs?
I'm not happy with the current timer tick interval
make the bridge device zerocopy/highmem transparent
move the spanning tree code to userspace
to be MLT (Nortel Multi Link Trunking) compatible: send bpdu's on all
  interfaces in the bonding bundle
faster switch to forward mode
  per-port STP disabling
  'fast start': listening->learning->forwarding in 2*hello instead of 2*fd
enslaved devs same MAC (like tap), then one changes


managerial
----------
improve documentation..
backup mailing list archives of openrock and math somewhere
revamp the web page
add web page mirrors


netfilter patch
---------------
make orig{src,dst}addr an anonymous union
sync MAC addresses DNAT/SNAT
make src mac substitution configurable
br_nf_pre_routing: ip_route_output -> output_key
br_nf_forward_postrouting: physoutdev (but id.)
output_maybe_reroute: pass directly?
br_nf_forward: physoutdev (but id.)
remove outdev assign in br_nf_local_out_postrouting
check: don't send unreachables
stp state delay
