To get to the download, you have to agree to some bullshit. So I asked them and they are more than happy to have it included in the tree (of course!)

There is no answer from him. Yes, we are happy to release our modifications to the driver under the original license terms so that it may be included in future OpenBSD distributions if you can do this help for us. I also put our engineer C.L. Huang in this loop in case he needs to do something.

I tried merging in the 1.95->1.96 change and it's not a simple merge. This area was modified by Areca in interesting ways. I'm looking at it. Chris
