I haven't done any "official application" because of my felt severity yet=
=2E
For a long term project the FreeBSD foundation was the better way, I thin=
k.
But I hoped somebody would be able to fix it before 8.0-RELEASE, which=20
is not too far away.
I just got one more reply from another fellow willing to donate for=20
fixing ODD support, but no reply from any coder yet...

All in all, not much response.
It seems the ones using ODDs are considering the problems as quiet=20
severe, but it also seems there are not many fellows missing working ODD =

support.
Is the media itself really outdated? I haven't done any blu-ray=20
experiments under FreeBSD yet, but I can't imagine things are working=20
better with that media.

So for now the pot is about 500 bucks.
Anyone to pick up?

Regards,

-Harry
