[ns] ns-2 sctp module release 2

["Armando L. Caro Jr." <acaro@mail.eecis.udel.edu>]

----- Message Text -----
The second release of our SCTP module for ns-2 is now available for
download. It currently supports the features in sections 6 and 7 of
RFC2960 except:

   6.1 bi-directional data
   6.4 multi-homing
   6.8 checksum
   6.9 fragmentation
   7.3 path mtu discovery

In addition, the unreliable data mode extension is supported.

The SCTP module has full NS-2 upper layer API support. It now supports all
legacy NS-2 applications, but they obviously aren't able to exploit all
SCTP's features. However, SCTP-aware application modules can be written to
do so.

We are currently working on:
   - Multihoming

Future work includes support for:
   - Add/Delete IP Option

The patch and readme are available from:

Thanks,
Armando & Jana
