Both of these cards are 8255 based, or emulate the 8255.  There are 
already at least two EMC2 drivers for 8255 based I/O cards.  It should 
be very easy to modify one of the existing drivers to work with these 
boards.  (Easier for the SeaLevel one, since you can actually download 
their manual without registering)

Clearly, if you're going to send a board to someone, you would want more 
than "I'll think about working on it some time".  There are several of 
us who are capable of doing this work, so you can find the one who will 
give you the best promise, or whatever else you're looking for.
