Hi folks,

Newbie question so please excuse the naivety. If someone were to copy a few=
 functions from NetBSD in to their FreeBSD kernel mode drivers then is it s=
till possible to submit the code in to the FreeBSD tree under the FreeBSD l=
icense? If not then would the community accept the copied code cleanly sepa=
rated out in a file and licensed under the NetBSD license? Please let me kn=
ow if there is an acceptable procedure to do this or if this is a complete =
NONO.
Thanks,
Abhishek
