Hi,

I'm not asking about re-licensing the whole driver, I think you misunderstand. 
I'm asking for permission to copy some programming commands so that I can use 
my Yealink under ISDN4BSD. Where did you get the documentation from, in 
between?

--HPS

BTW: I'm not on any of those lists you CC'ed.
