I for one would be interested in this project. I'd say if your code is written according to these principles, it has a very good chance of getting incorporated: - Cleanly formatted according to style(9) - Well documented - Orthogonal: if "options IPSEC" is not specified, then no extra garbage is included in a "normal" kernel. Minimal changes to existing files. - Works :-) - Written in such a way as to be easily understood and maintainable by a geographically (and otherwise) diverse crowd of FreeBSD hackers :-) -Archie ___________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * Whistle Communications, Inc. * http://www.whistle.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
