Sorry for the delayed response: been a busy weekend. SCTP looks very
promising, and would make a hopefully stable mesh: I agree with your
assessment in that regard vs optimized UDP setups.

As for my request for improved compression, the "zpipe" implementation
looks promising, as it is a high-level streaming compressor. I know most
of the developers appear to hail from Europe: a rather enlightened part
of the globe in terms of telecom infrastructure. Here in the US, we're
stuck with asymmetrical DSL and Cable services that are quite limited in
most locations: most of the locations I support with tinc are using 1.5
or 3 mbit down, 0.5 or 0.75 mbit up, DSL. The more bandwidth I can get
out of a line, the better.
