	I have written a ddp/ip driver for MIT/CMU PC/IP.  It talks through
the new TOPS driver (presumably compatible with Apple's PC card).  Source
is available for anonymous ftp from husc6.harvard.edu in pub/ddl/atip
or from harvard.harvard.edu in ddl/atip.  Note that the ip-over-ddp
system is not symmetrical between gateway and client so more code would
be necessary to turn this into a kinetics box replacement.
