I'm just going to buy the relevant ISO/IEC specs (8802-2 & 8802-5) and work from there. If anyone has any ISA TokenElites they'd not mind parting with I could use 'em. SMC should be sending me the SDKs any day now. A bit of the 802.2 code appears to be present in sys/netccitt (which appears to have been removed :/) I suspect some of it will be useful. There appears to be sufficient interest in Token Ring support. Would a FreeBSD-tokenring list be appropriate at this point? If nothing else it will move all the dicksizing there (and maybe help maintain some intertia for the coding efforts). /* Matthew N.
