Clearly somebody needs to commit the driver. By definition that's a committer :-) > How can I get a committer to review and push my code? I suppose there should be a process for that, but I can't find it in the documentation either. Basically you need to find a committer and persuade him to do the commit, or put in a PR with information about the driver. Experience shows that the former method is more reliable. > When is the final date to commit code to FreeBSD 10.0? That information will be on http://www.freebsd.org/releng/index.html when it comes up. > I would appreciate any help or guidance... Send me private mail with more information, in particular what the driver does, and I'll see who's most appropriate. Greg -- Sent from my desktop computer. Finger grog@FreeBSD.org for PGP public key.
