Subject: 4.4lite QDSS driver

Does anyone have any take on the difficulty involved in porting the
QDSS driver from 4.4lite to NetBSD?  I've got that hardware, and it sure
would be nice to start making some progress towards eventually having
an (abyssmally slow, but serviceable) X11 port for NetBSD/vax.  

Getting the QDSS console driver into NetBSD would start us on the path 
to resurrecting the QDSS X server from X10 (did it survive through X11?) 
and bringing it up to MIT's current code base.  It seems that then we'd
have a pretty short path to getting X11R6 for NetBSD/vax.

Is anyone else working on this (or contemplating such a foray)?
