Hi folks,

I've just added support, to the mvme68k port, for NetBSD's machine
independent VMEbus driver API.

In addition to supporting VMEbus access on MVME167 for the first time,
this also means that you can now write VMEbus device drivers which
*should* be portable across any NetBSD platform which supports the MI
VMEbus framework (endian issues not withstanding).

Volunteers are now required who have access to hardware and can write MI
VMEbus drivers to put this new code through its paces!

I hope to get a VMEbus FAQ up on the port's homepage sometime soon with
details on how to go about using the new framework. In the meantime, feel
free to let rip with any and all questions you may have on the subject.

Cheers, Steve
