Hello,

I've read the posts on the DragonFly BSD Digest site about virtio, but I 
have some questions about it.

A virtual network driver was ported from NetBSD, using some FreeBSD code 
that wasn't supposed to be public under a BSD license. So for the 
moment, the code that is published on gitorious 
(http://gitorious.org/virtio-drivers/virtio-drivers/trees/master) can't 
be used at all ? Can somebody tell me more about that ?
Thanks !

Regards,

Stéphanie
