Hi Tom & All,

I agree with that and I hope that developers and reviewers will do the
necessary work to make MPI and wimax code mergeable by january 20th.

Wimax developer, MPI developer, 802.11n block ack developers, please keep
on improving the code and submitting review requests as soon as possible
so that we can get ready to merge by the beginning of ns-3.8 release.

Others that are planning to have some code merged in next release, for
example Underwater Acoustic Network Device, NHDP and I guess others that I
don't know of, please start submitting your code as soon as possible to
have it ready for next release.

Even if your code is in development phase, it will be nice to submit it
for review, it is always easier to correct while developing a module than
to correct an already built module ;-).

Thank you for your cooperation

Best regards
