Reiter" To: freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org Subject: FireWire Device Driver Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG hihi. I was reading back emails of -hackers from like july '99 and a guy from Japan had been working on a very promising FireWire device driver ... Anyway, the other night I had picked up a really awesome book that goes into detail on FireWire and had basically decided to work on it myself (until I realized someone had already started work on it!)... However, the last email that was seemingly sent regarding this issue was one by jkh in which he gives a major value for the device driver,... and asks when it should be ready for use with -current. I have emailed the guy from japan and have received no response... so I am wondering if anyone else knows what's up with the firewire situation and whether I should go ahead and pick up work on it?
