Noone? Im willing to pay up to $150 AUD ($110 USD, approx 80-90 euro)
for those couple of functions + ensuring that PowerDNS-Recursor works
after that. Please consider an estimate of how long its going to take
and let me know(i suppose it might take only like 30 mins for some of
you). Let me know your hourly charge. However keep in mind that i will
always double check with other devs that im not being ripped off(not
that im cheap, but i know you understand i dont do C thus i cant say how
long its going to take...parents taught me to always be careful with
money and all)
I'm being serious.
Cheers,
Petr

How much would you like me to pay you? Honest, give me estimate on
how long this is going to take. If price is good, id also hire
someone to add NSS support.

Hi,
Could someone please port these from FreeBSD or NetBSD? Without
them it seem is impossible to install powerdns-recusor.
Can anyone do it in their spare time please?
As I keep saying, open source usually doesn't work this way. This
is how I see open source working:
(a) you need something, you do it
(b) you need something, you nag about it
(c) you need something, you offer to pay for it (code bounty),
somebody takes it and does it for you
so, what we can see, (b) doesn't help if nobody matches (a) nor
(c). of course you could have success by doing (b) so long until
somebody either shows enough mercy and does it or gets interested
himself and goes to (a). so if you *really* want something, (a) and
(c) are the fastest ways. if your abilities do not match (a), you
have to match (c). it's simple as that. people are volunteering
and (as you observed correctly) doing stuff in their spare time. of
course this leads to the result that people only actually do what
they like to do and this does not necessarily match what *other*
people would like them to do. offering money can overcome this
problem. i think this is a fair model where everybody can
contribute, either by writing code ((a)) or by supporting somebody
who writes code ((c)).

ps: i think *context does not have to be a kernel function like in
freebsd, but i'd like to hear more opinions on that
