Ok, here is the gitorious repo link.
I tried to add some code for puffs from the FreeBSD.
The make file wont work you need to make a minor change.
You can send me your gitorious id, so that I can add you to the project and you can fetch the files.
 
Thank You,

I think Sandip Jadhav is working on this one. So, better if we ask him otherwise two guys can end up with the same project.

I don't have any good advice on where to start; the NetBSD site does have
some documentation.  I don't think puffs has undergone any significant
porting work for DragonFly (or any other system?) so you get to be the
first.

It would be wonderful to have - I look forward to the proposal.  We'll
know if DragonFly's in Summer of Code by the 18th.



I've started to work on your puffs code . (Was on a small vacation until now ) .Now i find that for puffs framework the userspace communication is done by using a char device in putter . I think i should start porting it to DragonFly before i start out with puffs ? Or do you have any other ideas ?
