That's unfortunate. I had a box of their 10G NICs and I got them to
put a driver up for review[0][1], but they weren't very responsive and
the existing codebase was in pretty rough shape.

Beyond that, your #3 seems to be the most appealing. #2 could probably
work in the mid-to-long term, but we'd likely be better off
bootstrapping interest with solid community-supported drivers then
reaching out to vendors once we can demonstrate that plan field of
dreams can work and drive some substantial amount of business.
