We're happy to announce that kernel (kis and web10g) patches for 3.6, 
3.7, and 3.8 generic along with new userland API and utilities are now 
available on the Web10.org site under the software tab.

The userland archive includes the appropriate patches for 3.6, 3.7, and 
3.8.

web10g-userland-2.0.6.2:

         Added record-to-file read/write functions and data type.

         Added listconninfo structure and functions for associating uid,
         pid, cmdline, to connection tuple.

         Reverted naming conventions for functions/lib to "estats".

         Added doc/API.txt giving an overview and explication of main lib
         functions.

         Minor bug fixes.

web10g-0.6.2-patches:

         Patches for kernel version v3.6.0--v3.8.0.

         The patches including the netlink module have been
         renamed to web10g-*.patch to correspond with the naming
         convention of the public git repo at

                 frege.ncsa.illinois.edu:/home/web10g

         The web10g-*.patches are self-contained, comprising the
         Kernel Instrument Set (KIS) and the netlink module for
         exposing the instrument values.

         The patches kis-*.patch remain as _just_ the underlying
         instrument set, without the netlink module, for reference
         and testing.

         Patch versioning follows the repo tags, hence the jumps
         in version numbers.

         Added fix for a typo causing CurSsthresh to not update properly.

         Added fix for a mis-calculation in tcp_estats_update_sndlim.

         Added timestamps and connection info to netlink message
         upon request for READ_VARS.
