I guess a good starting point would be to ask, what is the scope of
work that needs to be done to add USB support to Virtual box in
FreeBSD

Hi,

I've looked at the VirtualBox USB layer, and adding FreeBSD USB support
should not require too much work. Is anyone interested in paying for
this work?

--HPS

I'm very reliant on VirtualBox, I suspect many on this list are (or
eventually will be), so I'm interested in having this support.

Hans, would this be better handled by the FreeBSD Foundation, or would
a pool of interested users be an appropriate vessel for the funds
(assuming it is financially viable -- how much are we talking? ;) ).

Hi,

I was thinking about something like $500-$1000 for adding USB support to
VirtualBox through LibUSB. Probably you are right that it would be better to
go through the FreeBSD Foundation, but I would also be fine getting paid
directly through paypal for example.

Woah. That seems awfully cheap for something that would be so
incredibly useful to have :)

I'm not a person of means, but I can surely come up with something --
I was actually hoping to make my first contribution to the Foundation
this year; I may have to make a tough decision :(

(Like you) I was hoping for a much greater response to your question;
surely we have a few more opinionated -emulation-ers out there?


If that costs that, then what would it cost to get the serial port
support working -again- in VirtualBox under FreeBSD?

(I haven't even bothered filing a FreeBSD PR since they still don't
have it working properly under Linux)
