I would like to ask for a major number for my dio48s/at-p driver (48 channel digital i/o with change of state interrupt). I don't need it right now as I am not yet done, but I should have most of the work finished within a week. I will be contributing this driver, unless rejected, to the freebsd project. This driver is needed to harness the full potential of the change of state interrupts, this is a rare feature not even found in 2x enpensive comparable boards (such as national instruments pcdio series). This can be used to latch the inputs upon a change and respond to those inputs. For instance it could be very useful in a computerized security system. See http://www.indcompsrc.com/products/data/html/dio48s_at-p.html for more info. I also need to know what kind of man page text I need to go along with this. I have never done any man pages.
