Our server, ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu (128.174.20.50) contains a contributed driver
for the 3C505 in the contributions directory.  Someone could take that
and add the packet-driver support on top of it.

Seems to me that 3Com doesn't want a freely copyable packet driver for
their 3c505 board.  Seems like an odd attitude to me.

We finally got word from 3Com about programmers documentation for the
3C505 board.  The documentation would cost $1000.00.  Sounds a little
outrageous to us here.  I'm still willing to write a driver for the
505, but purchasing the documentation is rather costly and hard to justify.
