I'm relaying the text of a message that I received the other day. Unfortunately, I don't have the the knowledge to write a driver. I am willing however to help with testing and debugging of a driver. I also currently use ISDN. I have responded to their original request, with an offer to help locate a developer. I really hope somebody is interested in working on this. The ISDN support in FreeBSD could really use a boost. I seem to remember in previous discussions of this, the problem was finding a vendor to work with. Please contact the conpany directly if you are interested. I would guess that they are most interested in dealing with people in North America. If you contact them, please let me know. Otherwise, I'll keep canvassing the mailing lists. I think it is important that somebody follows up with them, positively or negatively. If there is somebody else who is "in charge" of this kind of thing, please let me know. You can check their equipment out at <http://www.spellcast.com>; -bill Original message follows. ======= Bill, I came across your name while going through the FreeBSD documentation project. We currently have a Linux driver for our ISDN adapters and would be interested in developing same for FreeBSD. Could you let me know who the key contributors are in this area. We have equipment we could donate to this end and would be interested in hooking up with a developer interested in the project with solid experience writing network drivers for FreeBSD. We will contributed person-power to the project but are just getting started with FreeBSD and an experienced guide would be an assets. I hope you can help, and I look forward to hearing from you in the near future. PS. We are located in Toronto, Canada and a local person would be an definite asset to us (at least in the same time zone). -- Erik Petersen MediaGlobe Inc./SpellCaster Telecommunications Inc. erik@mediaglobe.com/erik@spellcast.com -- William Lloyd (wlloyd@mpd.ca) | <http://www.mpd.ca>;
