How to propose your idea ------------------------------ Reply to this email with the following project idea template filled in:
Would something like this be acceptable? === Develop a driver to emulate an existing network-, scsi- or graphic-card in software === '''Summary:''' Develop a driver for Qemu to emulate an old network-, SCSI- or graphic card in software Qemu allows to emulate a lot of physical machines. Beside widely used x86 machines as used with KVM, this includes historic machines based on PowerPC, Alpha or HP PA-RISC CPUs too. To allow to emulate additional specific historic machine models, drivers to emulate specific hardware like network-, SCSI- or graphic cards need to be developed. This project is about to develop such a driver for the historic HP PA-RISC architecture, e.g. for the "LASI" network card, or a driver to emulate a "classic" first-generation NCR 710 SCSI controller.
