That's a very kind offer, but I believe that between Gary, Greg and I
(and probably a number of other folks in Germany) we can probably do
it remotely.  See below as to why this is probably the only thing
that will work. :(

I thought you were on an island in Spain? :-)

I'm afraid not - the U.S. ISDN scene here is still very young, and
available resources are very thin.  For example, I'm the only person
on the west coast that I know of who's actually using a FreeBSD box
directly for ISDN - everyone else buys Ascend routers and such.
Walnut Creek's own interest is very small - basically, once I got my
link working they stopped thinking about it.. ;-) It's going to be a
struggle just finding funding for another 2 cards, I think.

If it were a more active scene, with a couple of FreeBSD ISDN users
(to be honest, I don't even know of any *Linux* ISDN users - ISDN
still being that slow to take off here) then I'd definitely try to
figure out some way for you to come out, but it's simply too small
a group right now.  It wouldn't be worth it for you or us! :(

If you're sure! :-) Done.  You can unsubscribe yourself at any time by
sending an unsubscribe request to majordomo@freebsd.org
