The versions I found seem to be rather old, and I found a hint somewhere that iBCS is discontinued by its original authors... Anybody else working on this, so we could combine efforts? I have no idea what really is done inside iBCS, at least up to now. I try to compile, and fix where the compiler gives me errors. This will probably lead to a module that can be loaded, but will not work at all :-(. If somebody is further than I am, or working on this as well, please respond either here or by email.

The current release is on tsx-11.mit.edu under /pub/linux/BETA/ibcs/ and works with 2.0 kernels. There are some patches on ftp.yggdrasil.com under /private/adam which seem to make iBCS work with 2.1 kernels. New releases of iBCS are in the pipeline.
