Nope, sorry. Also, a mailing list was set up, lots of people joined to `work' on nsswitch (including at least one FreeBSD committer), and I recently took it down again after months of no progress. We won't see a `full' nsswitch implementation on BSD until someone with time and competency steps up. Alas, it isn't on my map, but as always I will be happy to share what I learned from my prototypes with whoever tackles it. Cheers, -- Jacques A.
