Well, I imagine Linux only has Token Ring support because someone
who needed it was willing to sit down and write it - I'm afraid
that's the way free operating systems tend to work.

(This isn't meant to be a flame - I really wish I had the time, ability
and inclination to do half the things I would like to see in FreeBSD, so
I can understand why you're not interested in writing TR support).
