I don't think they have released it.  I don't know if they plan to.  I
do remember seeing some mention of it but didn't realize it was on 27
nodes.

It does make me a bit sad, thinking of how much programming effort must
have gone into that, only to end up with a 10 mbit NIC.  I don't even
remember how long it's been since I last saw any 10 mbit ethernet gear.
Even 100 mbit is kind of creaky these days.  Most users want 1000 mbit,
which is completely out of reach for that software approach. And 10000
mbit or even 25000 mbit is starting to make itself felt.  (100 gbit is
actually four bonded 25 gbit channels, I think).
