With all the talk about adding support for hot plugging items into the system. Would
it make sense to utilize
Apple's work with IOKit in FreeBSD ? I know that this could be a BIG project- but why
reproduce what apple is
giving away ? It looks to be a really nice driver architecture. Would the APSL license
stand in the way ??? I
think that it would be mutually beneficial - Apple's Intel effort would acquire
drivers by the boatload and the
BSD community would have one cool driver development framework. Would the BSD
community support such a project
????
More information is available here for the interested.
