Enabling of SCTP in FreeBSD 7

Dear all,

I would like to bring up the question if it is a good idea
to enable SCTP in FreeBSD 7 by default.

I think that for people not using SCTP it does not hurt, for
people using SCTP it is a great help, because they do not
have to compile a kernel on their own. Linux and Solaris are
now delivered with SCTP support enabled. FreeBSD does have
the SCTP implementation with the most advanced features and
it is a nice platform for people writing SCTP applications.

So is it possible to enable SCTP by default?

Best regards
Michael
