[ale] Simple QoS

[james at sumners.ath.cx]

I have no idea. I haven't had a chance to mess with it myself; I just
know that it is designed for home broadband connections that are easily
affected by uploading. I really need to start working on it though,
playing games and getting lag in the middle because your room mates
start uploading stuff is annoying.

I used to be interested in Windows NT, but the more I see of it the more it looks like traditional Windows with a stabler kernel. I don't find anything technically interesting there. In my opinion MS is a lot better at making money than it is at making good operating systems.  -- Linus Torvalds
