// Package profiles and its subdirectories provide implementations of the
// Vanadium runtime for different runtime environments. Each subdirectory is a
// package that implements the v23.Profile function.
//
// Profiles register themselves by calling v.io/v23/rt.RegisterProfile in an
// init function. Users choose a particular profile implementation by importing
// the appropriate package in their main package. It is an error to import more
// than one profile, and the registration mechanism will panic if this is
// attempted. Commonly used functionality and pre-canned profiles are in
// profiles/internal.
//
// This top level directory contains a 'generic' Profile and utility routines
// used by other Profiles. It should be imported whenever possible and
// particularly by tests.
//
// The 'roaming' Profile adds operating system support for varied network
// configurations and in particular dhcp. It should be used by any application
// that may 'roam' or any may be behind a 1-1 NAT. The 'static' profile
// does not provide dhcp support, but is otherwise like the roaming profile.
