ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
     Development  and  testing	of  this  software were made possible in part by
     grants from the FreeBSD Foundation and Cisco  University  Research  Program
     Fund at Community Foundation Silicon Valley.

HISTORY
     The  cc_newreno  congestion control algorithm first appeared in its modular
     form in FreeBSD 9.0.

     The module was first released in 2007 by James Healy and  Lawrence  Stewart
     whilst  working  on  the NewTCP research project at Swinburne University of
     Technology's Centre for Advanced Internet	Architectures,	Melbourne,  Aus-
     tralia,  which  was made possible in part by a grant from the Cisco Univer-
     sity Research Program Fund at Community Foundation  Silicon  Valley.   More
