All,
This nice chap from 3Ware is requesting additional requests for BSD drivers
to support the effort within 3Ware - I'm sure we can oblidge! If you have
any interest in running BSD (any flavor) on 3Ware RAID controllers, please
email a request indicating that you use, or would like to use same.
Please feel free to forward to any other interested lists!

Hello Leland,
My superiors are aware of these requests for BSD support. As far as I know,
there are no solid plans on continuing development for BSD. Unfortunately,
I don't have jurisdiction over starting such a project. Since the last time
we did any sort of release for BSD support, software, driver, and hardware
have all changed so a significant effort will have to be put into bringing
BSD up to the level Linux and Windows are at. I have forwarded your e-mail
to my boss; that is about all I can do from my position. Perhaps you will
hear some good news about BSD support in the near future, especially if we
get more requests like yours.
-Alan
