>Release:        FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE i386
>Organization:
Granch, Ltd.
>Environment:
	i386 architecture, FreeBSD versions 4.1 and above

>Description:
	Our company, Granch, Ltd. (http://www.granch.com), is manufacturer
of data communication equipment. For a few years we offer a FreeBSD driver
for leased line modems SBNI12, rather widely used in Russia. Is it able
to include this driver in FreeBSD distribution ?
	The driver isn't hard to integrate: we should create sys/dev/sbni
subdirectory, copy three .c and two .h files there, and patch some
existing files (sys/conf/files, sys/conf/files.i386, sys/net/if_mib.h,
sys/i386/i386/userconfig.c, and, optionally, sys/i386/conf/LINT).
Additionally, there is a small configuration utility, which may be stored
in src/sbin/sbniconfig subdirectory, like cxconfig.

	p.s. Sorry for my English.
