I need a name.

A project log for miniMAC - Not an Ethernet Transceiver

custom(izable) circuit for sending some megabytes over differential pairs.

This project can no longer be defined by what it is not. I need to name it, if only just for the sake of naming the files, entities and archives. And I have no idea yet...

Any suggestion ?

yet another novel network: yannet

"network" might be a stretch for a link protocol -- but then I wonder if a dumb hub would be dumb enough to propagate yannet for a LAN?

thanks !
though I am not so sure it's all so "novel" and this word evokes "Netware"...

As for what is done with the packets, it's a whole different story, as there is no notion of MAC address.
