Bluetooth PAN support for FreeBSD

Hey all!

Is anybody actively working on implementing a Bluetooth
userspace PAN daemon 
for FreeBSD?

I currently have a (somewhat) functional prototype written
using tap 
interfaces as the local backend, and if time permits, I'll
try to fix this up 
sooner or later to a mature and generally distributable
form, but if anybody 
else is out there who already started working on this, would
you like to 
share the effort?

Mail me if you're interested!

i've heard something in the past, however, i'm not aware of
any active
ongoing work.

that's great. i might be able to get some free time and help
you
(review/commit/coding). could you please share the code you
already
have with the rest of us?

thanks,
max

Cool! I'm definitely interested - hopefully today I get a
PAN capable
phone and was going to write a pand (for NetBSD but it
should be the same)

Do you have a source archive?

Currently, I just have the sources locally, but I'm going to
set up a 
mercurial archive for it some time this evening, when I
(hopefully) get/have 
my new dedicated server.

I'll mail the list when I'm done with that.

Just on a short sidenote for now: the BNEP protocol
implementation is mostly 
complete (except for some packet filtering things, which are
totally unclear 
in the specification), but from the PAN profile I have only
implemented PANU 
(i.e., phone) to NAP (btpand) support for the time being.
All other setups, 
such as PANU to PANU, PANU to group adhoc or NAP to PANU
(with the computer 
being the client) should easily be implementable on top of
that, but aren't 
at the moment.

The mercurial archive is set up (currently on my employers
server, and it'll 
move from there):

http://btpand.beenic.net


You (should be able to) clone directly from there.

I wrote a small README, which is also checked in, and the
code as it stands 
works fine for my phone. If it doesn't work for yours, feel
free to mail me, 
but I'll be overhauling the current code (which basically
came to existance 
in the last 24 hours as a rewrite from a previous codebase)
over the next 
couple of days anyway, because I'm not too happy with quite
a lot of design 
(non-)decisions I took.

Feel free to send me any comments anyway, though!

ok, i'll take care of teaching sdpd and libsdp about pan
profiles.
then i will take a closer look at btpand. one thing i
noticed right
away is that it is not style(9) compatible 

thanks,
max

Hi! Is there any progress in teaching FreeBSD to understand
PAN?
