[Asterisk-Dev] asterisk (less hardware) ported to FreeBSD

[Mark Spencer]

I've been taking some portability fixes already in the direction of
FreeBSD.  Right now the best method would likely be to submit the patches
via the Asterisk bug tracker at http://bugs.digium.com.

Only a few people outside of Digium have CVS write permission, and
especially for something like this I will need to review the patches
myself.

Finally, to merge your changes, we will need a disclaimer (see
http://www.digium.com/disclaim.changes or
http://www.digium.com/disclaimer.txt).  Either document is fine (just what
ever you are more comfortable with) and should be submitted (preferably by
fax to +1-256-971-6890).
