Hi, You should first find out what happened to the old project to implement a pluggable disk scheduler idea for a SoC. There's some information here: http://wiki.freebsd.org/Hybrid . It has apparently been developed, up to a point, but has never been integrated into FreeBSD sources, and is thus abandoned now. You should: a) Contact the old author for more information b) Find out why the project hasn't been accepted / merged into the official FreeBSD source tree c) Decide if the problems that the previous project faced are something you can solve (or have been solved by others in the meantime) so your project results end up in FreeBSD. --------------enig9EC24FB2FFBBF1F6BB1F67B7 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFJM7wNldnAQVacBcgRAqVvAKCOeni/mw+QwfxMzIIMOy9xRu5n/QCaA+Tb cTnX8em8Klq0dwo889zIEls= =WEEE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig9EC24FB2FFBBF1F6BB1F67B7--
