+      <p>The aim of this project is to design and implement
+	infrastructure to validate that a number of the network stack's
+	multiqueue behaviours are functioning as expected.</p>
+
+      <p>At present, most parts of this project have been
+	implemented.  It mainly consists of two parts:</p>
+
+      <ol>
+	<li>A general mechanism to collect the per-ring per-cpu
+	  statistics that can be used by all NIC drivers, and extensions to
+	  netstat(1) to report these statistics.</li>
+
+	<li>A suite of network stack behavior testing programs that consists
+	  of:
+	  <ul>
+	    <li>a virtual multiqueue ethernet interface (vme)</li>
+	    <li>a UDP packet generator based on vme</li>
+	    <li>a UDP server based on socket(2)</li>
+	    <li>a TCP client based on lwip and vme</li>
+	    <li>a TCP server based on socket(2).</li>
+	  </ul>
+	</li>
+      </ol>
+
+      <p>However, it still needs further refinements to make it suitable for
+	committing to &os;-HEAD.</p>
