All:

I'm interested in determining whether it's practical to add VTun to 
the suite of VPN protocols supported by FreeBSD's mpd 
(multi-protocol daemon). mpd currently handles PPTP, PPPoE, and L2TP.

The work would require creating a module for FreeBSD's Netgraph 
system (probably called ng_vtun) and adding code to mpd to support it.

The only issue I see with creating the implementation isn't 
technical but legal. Because the module would be a FreeBSD kernel 
module, it would need to be BSD-licensed, so to do the port I would 
either need to implement the code from scratch from the 
specification or get permission for the FreeBSD version to be 
licensed under the BSD License. Is there a list of contributors to 
the VTun code who could be asked for permission to do the latter?
