Yeah, SCTP has been in the news :-)

I've been terribly busy with real-life issues (moving into a new
flat).  I expect the SCTP features to be ready for merging into
trunk soon.  I know the code currently doesn't build on OS X,
which I'm looking at right now.  I also have some other patches
piling up in the to test and commit queue.  I think I'll announce
a request for ``testing and breaking'' nmap-sctp as soon as my
Nmap task queue is down to zero.
