Hi, all,

It's great to get your feedback. I haven't get time to update Bluetooth 
project page these days, I am on the way porting SDP lib and sdpquery 
tool into bluetooth-gate, it will be available soon, I think. Meantime, 
sockl2cap and sockrfcomm modues will be integreated after some test, but 
I haven't get chance to test socksco module, due to no related device on 
my hand.
To get a brief of the porting work, please look into below link:
http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/bluetooth/bluetooth-gate/usr/src/uts/common/sys/bluetooth.h

The gate is initiated from a clone of OpenSolaris/volo-gate, since I 
decided to use Volo new socket framework directly, you can do nightly 
build with the same toolchain as Volo-gate. (also need nv84 closed-bin)
Install steps: (please ensure your machine have a usb bluetooth dongle 
inserted, I suggest BT2.0 dongle)
1. install OpenSolaris/build84.
2. cap-eye-install bluetooth kernel(when nightly complete)
3.1 copy soconfig to /sbin/soconfig
3.2 copy btconfig to /usr/sbin/btconfig
3.3 copy libbluetooth.so.1 to /lib/.
4. #/sbin/soconfig 31 4 1 - sockrawhci
5. #add_drv -i '"usb,classe0.1.1"' ubt
6. btconfig -l
7. you should be able to see ubt0 as the output
8. btconfig ubt0 up pscan
(you can also find manual page here: 
http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi?btconfig++NetBSD-current)

Yes, we can plan some application support such as OpenSync, Obex file 
share... mouse/keyboard, they are not far away now, but I have been 
assigned other high priority tasks in my team, and can only spend 20% of 
my time on Bluetooth project, after SDP layer porting. Anyway, I believe 
the Bluetooth core protocol layers that are available in Bluetooth-gate 
are quit enough to support OpenSync and OBEX applications.

Thanks,
Michael
