There is a [GPL] version of DCCP being produced at present for the [LinuxKernel]. This is being maintained by ArnaldoMelo at present. The history of this is that it draws from the code of Patrick ~McManus, Lulea and the [WAND] group that IanMcDonald is part of. The status of this is that it has been accepted by LinusTorvalds into his 2.6.14 tree.
The core DCCP stack was written by ArnaldoMelo using the Linux [TCP] implementation as a model, with DCCP being used as a way to identify code in the [TCP] implementation that could be made generic and shared with other INET transport level implementations. This resulted in the generalisation of code related to the minisockets representing both TCP_SYN_RECV/DCCP_RESPOND and TCP_TIME_WAIT/DCCP_TIME_WAIT status, code related to established/timewait/listen sockets (inet_lookup, inet_lookup_established, etc), the interface to get sock information (tcp_diag), and many other functions and data structures, with more expected to be generalised and eventually used by [SCTP] and any other INET transport protocols that may be introduced in the future.

+A: You are running [SELinux] which does not yet have DCCP support. Disable [SELinux].
