This is a tutorial given at the 1999 Ottawa Linux symposium

For general questions please first try the Linux Diffserv Mailing List. Do not email any of the code authors directly.
All of them do this in their  spare time and it would be wiser to let them use those  cycles to write more code or fix bugs etc

If you must email me directly use hadi@cyberus.ca

The Linux QoS framework is architected by Alexey Kuznetsov. 
Werner Almesberger and the author  have contributed mostly with a diffserv emphasis.
