I actually wasn't speaking of taking the source (that Oracle most likely 
wouldn't provide, anyway) but about the possibility to take and integrate 
pre-compiled modules. Wouldn't that _potentially_ be possible in this case for 
anyone desperately needing USB 3?

Cheers
 Stefan

Betreff: Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] OpenIndiana USB 3 support

On listbox, september 2013, the discussion is headed "anyone seen wireless USB 
in the wild?"

There are developments afoot, but currently it is not shipped in any system 
based on Illumos AFAIK

We cannot take any source from Oracle unless they release it, they are not 
currently releasing source code.  Even if Oracle decided to release source 
code, we are a fork, and it might no longer be compatible code.
