Hi all,

Following previous discussions, I would like to gather requirements for
v2, currently we have:

1. Introduction of new typedefs.
2. Modification of network headers.
3. Modification of rte_*_to_*() functions.

Point 1. seems not to be an issue, everyone seems to agree on the fact
having those types could help to document some parts of the code.

Point 2. does not cause any ABI change as it is only a documentation
commit, not sure if anyone disagrees about this.

Point 3. documentation commit most people are uncomfortable with.
I propose to drop it from v2.

Any objection to this plan?
