Some updates to the 5.2-TODO list:
- Break out KSE portability item into seperate line items so we can report on each platform. Note that ia64 is now finished (modulo testing), sparc64 is "in progress"; amd64 is "in progress", alpha is "in progress" (it looks like progress has been made, but I'm not in a positive to evaluate it). - Chown KAME sync item to ume since he's doing the work. - Add Sam Leffler to the list of people working on network stack locking. - Remove IDA driver stability issue: this is believed to be resolved. - Fix up table formatting for prebinding task.
