Ideally maintaining upstream on github. My initial thought was we could port the NetBSD version but theirs is arguably just as ancient as ours.

My last experience doing that was painful because there was more than one subdirectory involved and most of the doc out there talks about only one. -- Cheers, Cy Schubert <Cy.Schubert@cschubert.com> FreeBSD UNIX: <cy@FreeBSD.org> Web: http://www.FreeBSD.org The need of the many outweighs the greed of the few.
