The specs are freely available from www.irda.org and the Linux folks have made some progress in the area. The problem with irda is that is a huge standard divided in many different protocols. Many devices/implementations only support a tiny part of the standards. My problem is that I have never written a Unix device driver let alone a whole bus with different drivers, devices, plug&play, multi- protocol support that can bind to both IP and other interfaces some which have to be developed by the project. Having said that I doubt that I am the right person to lead such a project, but I would be happy to spend time to code, test and document some part of it. /Martin -- _____________________________________________________________________ | o | +---------------------------+ +---------------------------+ | o | | | | Martin Nilsson M.Sc.
