Nut upsdev - Feb 2011 - "Ever" Company UPS drivers

Dear NUT Developers,

 

First of all I would like to introduce myself, my name is Simon Iwi?ski and
for some time right now I'm working in Ever Company that design and builds
UPSes from scratch. I'm responsible mostly for proper functionality of
"Evers"  IT sector but lately also for our dedicated application
(called
PowerSoft) testing and development. Recently I've heard about NUT from one
of our clients, that uses it for a long time now. He was quite disappointed
that none of our modern products, was supported by NUT Project. In order to
understand how it works I've installed NUT on my Debian machine and I have
to admit that its terrific. In this occasion I would like to thank (by I
think everybody who uses it aswell) for making this awesome tool, I can only
imagine how much time does it take to create something that works so well.
Secondly 

I would like to kindly ask You NUT Developers is it possible to write down
new drivers to our products? Of course ill send any necessary technical
documentation needed for that process. Please let me know if its possible, I
personally regret that we got only one star on Hardware Compatibility List.

Z powa?aniem,

4 months have passed without any developer standing up (and thanks to
Charles for reminding me this).
from there, you have 2 options to improve your support level:

- do it yourself: test your devices with NUT, create or improve driver(s)
and submit patches.
Providing publicly protocols and information also help.
This is not a hard task, and we can provide you advices and guidance to do
so.

- some NUT developers may provide paid professional services.
Up to you to propose a "bounty" and see if somebody is interested.

cheers,
Arnaud
