Hi,

there is a new I4B driver available at:
http://home.c2i.net/hselasky/isdn4bsd/privat/temporary/

that compiles with FreeBSD 5.3-RC1

Hence I have made so many changes to the I4B subsystem, my driver will not get 
distributed. Is there anyone that agrees, it is time to upgrade the ISDN-
subsystem of FreeBSD?

-HPS

I have previously objected to your driver on the basis that the
style is very obfuscated and uses GCC specific features like
computed gotos etc.

These objections are still valid.

As already stated in private email, i'm neither supporting that the current
subsystem is replaced nor am i available for working on such a change.

It is true that the current subsystem needs some work and you are more
than welcome to enhance it. Your valued work contains some good ideas
and enhancements but please understand that i will not say yes 1) to not 
enhancing it incrementally but completely ripping it out and replacing it
(not only in the light that many of the currently supported cards are 
said to be non-tested in your code) and 2) to code which i still consider 
unmaintainable.

On the other side, since i have not done much work on i4b in the last year
my vote shouldn't be counted too much ;-)
