Ok. I have the following netgraph nodes ready and working:

if_fatm		- this is a new driver for the FORE-PCA200E with netgraph
		  and NATM support
ng_atm		- this is a netgraph node which gives you direct access to
		  the above driver
ng_sscop	- this implements the ITU-T Q.2110 SSCOP protocol
ng_sscfu	- this is the almost empty SSCF above SSCOP for UNI
ng_uni		- this is UNI4.0 (without LIJ, which I'm probably will
		  not implement because it's dropped in UNI4.1)
ng_ccatm	- this implements the Native ATM-API (af-saa-0108.000)
		  I'm working on this at the moment.

Still missing:

ng_clip		- classical IP-over-ATM
ng_atmsock	- this will probably sit on ng_ccatm to provide a socket()
		  interface to native ATM

In the future:

ng_lane		- LANE client.

How soon you can use it, I don't know. The ATM-API is really the hard
part! Try to read their document: good intent, but result even worse than
ITU-T documents :-(

I think I will have everything except atmsock in the middle of may.
